<img src="/icons/book_gray.svg" alt="/icons/book_gray.svg" width="40px" /> I am currently a Ph.D. student at Portland State University supervised by Prof. Fang Song. My current research focuses on quantum pseudorandomness in cryptography. I am particularly interested in understanding the differences among various quantum pseudorandom primitives and exploring their computational indistinguishability across different security settings from a cryptographic perspective.

<aside> <img src="/icons/stairs_gray.svg" alt="/icons/stairs_gray.svg" width="40px" /> In 2017, I decided to switch my major from Advertising to Computer Science. I enrolled in the Post-Baccalaureate program at Portland State University’s Computer Science department to bridge the gap. After one year in the program, I was admitted to the Master’s program, where I earned my MS in 2019. Motivated by my curiosity about quantum computing and theoretical computer science, as well as a desire to explore more complex and fundamental topics, I decided to continue my journey in advanced research.
