"Science must begin with myths, and with the criticism of myths." - Karl Popper 

I am a data science doctoral student in the UChicago Knowledge Lab working with James A. Evans

My papers appear in leading peer-reviewed journals across general science, network science, and social sciences, including Nature Communications, as well as in top interdisciplinary computing conferences including WWW/TheWebConf. My Erdős number is 4.

I have backgrounds in mathematics, computer science, social science, and evolutionary biology. Before Chicago I graduated from Michigan State and was a research associate at Harvard Business School. I am from Northeast China - Manchuria (东北), and my interest in "computing and society" began in high school when I interned at a local university. In my free time, you’ll often find me in the weight room.

I widely collaborate with social computing researchers outside Chicago. Drop me an email if you are interested in working together!
