I am an Executive Director of SenseTime. I was a participant on the predictive modelling competition platform Kaggle. My highest Kaggle ranking was 6th. I obtained the PhD degree from The Chinese University of Hong Kong, and the BEng degree from Tsinghua University, Beijing. I spent a year as a research intern at Microsoft Research Asia. I also spent two years as a quantitative trader, developing high-frequency market-making strategies on equity and future markets with the knowledge of machine learning and market microstructure.
