About Me
I am currently a lecturer at the school of computing and information technology at University of Wollongong. Prior to joining UOW, I was a postdoc researcher at The University of Hong Kong hosted by Prof. Man Ho Au. I received my PhD at Shandong University in 2019, advised by Prof. Qiuliang Xu.
My research interests lie in cryptography. Recently, I am working on lattice-based cryptography, zero-knowledge proofs, cryptographic watermarking, and advanced encryption schemes. My work has been generously supported by the ARC Discovery Early Career Researcher Award.
I am looking for self-motivated PhD students. Please send me an email if you are interested.
