Hello! I am a Computer Science Graduate student at The University of British Columbia. I am currently researching on Convex Analysis. I believe AI is a versatile topic which is constantly advancing, and good research in AI has the potential to alter and revolutionize our society. Hence, I intend to prepare myself as a dedicated researcher in the field of data science and AI. My key skills are analytical reasoning, writing, leadership, good interpersonal skills and ability to perform well under pressure.
