About Me:

I am a Ph.D candidate of Electrical and Computer Engineering Department at WINLAB, Rutgers University. My advisor is Prof. Marco Gruteser and co-advisor Prof. Yanyong Zhang. Before I came to Winlab, I was working as a Software Engineer at Adknowledge, Inc. Kansas City, MO. I recevied the B.S. degree from the School of Communication and Information Engineering at Univeristy of Electronic Science and Technology of China, and the M.S. degrees in Computer Science and Information Technology from Clarkson University.

Research Interests:

Sensor Networks, Wireless Networks, Location-aware Networking, Network Security

Teaching Experience:

I worked as teaching assistant or grader for the following courses:
  • @Rutgers:
    • 16:332:567 Software Engineering(Fall 2008)
    • ECE:252 Programming Methodology I(Spring 2007)
