I am a fifth year PhD student, working in DSL with Prof. Divyakant Agrawal and Prof. Amr El Abbadi. Before coming to UCSB, I got my bachelor degree from School of Software Engineering in 2004 and master degree from Dept. of Computer Science in 2007 at Southeast University, China. My broad research interests are databases and distributed systems. My recent research interests and work focus on data privacy and security in an open networked world.
