I am a second-year MA/PhD student in the Communication Department at the University of Washington in Seattle, WA. I will be co-advised by Professor Benjamin Mako Hill and Professor Wang Liao. My research interests revolve around uncovering the micro-to-macro linkage in the communication processes in the context of online communication. I am eager to find patterns in processes where micro-level group communications develop to trigger organizational communication behaviors, and finally result in macro-level changes in mass communication.

Prior to joining CDSC, I obtained my M.S. degree from Georgia Tech and worked as a data scientist on generative language models. I look forward to applying computational methods properly to study questions related to communication processes. I am also interested in learning about qualitative methods to research people's exact thoughts on certain topics.

Aside from working and studying, I enjoy my free time through traveling, hiking, and snowboarding (Seattle is a great place for all of them!)
