About Me
I am a third-year undergraduate student in the Hongyi Honor Class, School of Computer Science at Wuhan University. I joined the Totem Database Laboratory in my freshman year, where I am fortunate to be advised by Prof. Sheng Wang. And I really appreciate the guidance from Dr. Zhiyu Chen at Amazon. Before I started my senior undergraduate journey, I have spent wonderful summers at Tencent and LINs Lab, Westlake University.
My research focuses on Systems for ML, with an emphasis on improving the runtime efficiency of modern systems, including LLM serving systems and databases that integrate LLMs. My work spans algorithms and systems, from cluster-scale to on-device serving, with the goal of building the next generation of efficient serving systems.
I also share technical notes and reflections on research through my Zhihu blog and Xiaohongshu. Feel free to visit if you use Chinese social media.

Team
Our lab at WHU always looks for high-motivated undergraduate students and interns/RA. If you are interested in topics about databases/LLM/AI infra/ML, feel free to contact Prof. Sheng Wang or email me directly. We can offer guidance and support within our means.
My experience in the lab has been highly rewarding. I have received excellent guidance and benefited from a supportive and collaborative lab environment. Along the way, I have developed practical insights into getting started with research in machine learning and database systems, and I am always open to research collaborations.
