I am currently an Assistant Professor at Shenyang Normal University, China. From January 2024 to August 2025, I was a Postdoctoral Fellow in the Department of Management Science and Engineering at the University of Waterloo, supervised by Prof. Stanko Dimitrov and
Prof. Qi-Ming He. I completed my PhD in the same department under the supervision of Prof. Stanko Dimitrov and Prof. Michael Pavlin. My research focuses on applying robust optimization to understand climate change adaptation and utilizing machine learning techniques to solve queueing models.
