I will join Nvidia as a solution architect, HPC system engineer from Jan 2026. I received my PhD degree in the Department of Computer Science at Texas Tech University. I was part of the research team led by Dr. Yong Chen, collaborating with experts like Dr. Wei Zhang from Texas Advanced Computing Center and Dr. Suren Byna from The Ohio State University. My research focused on High-Performance Computing (HPC), energy-efficient framework, AI inference on HPC and scientific data management.
