Bio

I obtained my Ph.D. from Nanyang Technological University (NTU) in Singapore. My research focuses on AI algorithm design and optimization, with a particular interest in Agentic AI systems. I explore how large models can be structured into intelligent agents capable of reasoning, planning, and tool interaction, while maintaining computational efficiency and scalability. You may find my latest research works here.
