I am a Ph.D. student at University of Toronto Department of Computer Science, supervised by Professor Steve Easterbrook.

My research interests are: climate informatics, human-computer interaction, and explainable AI. My current project explores the applications of explainable AI in climate science, focusing on how climate scientists envision using machine learning.

I obtained my Bachelor’s degrees in Computer Science and Mathematical Statistics with honors from Wake Forest University. I then earned my MSc in financial technology at Hong Kong University of Science and Technology.
