About me:

I am a PhD student studying applied mathematics at Columbia University. My advisor is Prof. Guillaume Bal.

Before transferring to Columbia in 2010, I spent a year in the Division of Applied Mathematics at Brown University and got a master's degree there. I went to undergraduate school studying math and physics at Tsinghua University in Beijing, China, and got a bachelor's degree in 2009.

My research interest lies in probabilistic and asymptotic methods with application in physics and finance, especially the idea of scaling limits.
