I am faculty in the Computer Science Department at the University of Michgan.



News!:
The Michigan student team I mentored has won 1st place in their category in the ProjectX 2020 competition. Congratulations Eric Chen, Sanjeev Raja, Ziwei (Alice) Tian, Anh Tuan (Alan) Tran, Yue (Amanda) Yao, and Zhizhuo (Z) Zhou!
The Explore CS student team I mentored has won 3rd place in the ACM undergraduate student research competition at vGHC 2020! Congratulations Serena Xiong and Hazel Wong!


Mentoring:
One of the reasons I love my job (other than teaching of course!) is that I get to mentor wonderful, smart and motivated students!
