About

I am a software engineer in Amazon Web Services (AWS), working on the software stack that supports AWS Elastic Fabric Adaptor, including the Open Fabric Interface project https://github.com/ofiwg/libfabric. Before joining AWS, I obtained a PhD in physics from University of Washington. During my graduate school years, working with Prof. Aurel Bulgac , I study various quantum many-body problems in nuclear physics. My research primarily involves the application of density function theory (DFT) and its time-dependent extension (TDDFT) on superfluid many-fermion systems, from the static nuclear structure, to nuclear fission and reactions.

I have expertise in high-performance computing, including MPI, OpenMP, and CUDA C programming. I also have a solid knowledge of applied mathematics, especially the numerical solutions of partial differential equations (PDE)

I was born in 1991 in Wuhu, Anhui, China. I got a B.S. in physics from University of Science and Technology of China (USTC) in 2013 before I joined the graduate program in University of Washington.
