About
I am currently a tenure-track assistant professor in the Department of Computer Science at the University of Texas at Dallas. I received my Ph.D. degree from George Mason University in 2023, advised by Dr. Kun Sun at the Center of Secure Information System and honored with Outstanding Dissertation Award. My research interest is software security, with a focus on applying machine/deep learning for vulnerability detection, patch management, program analysis, etc. I am also interested in AI security and systems security.
