A little abt me

I am currently a junior learning Computer Science and Mathematics at University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign. I am interested in language agents, and the applications in various fields such as finance, research, and so on. I am also interested in building better UI for language agents.

In my spare time, I play basketball, read books and listen music. I like reading history books. I listen Rock, R&B and Hongkong pop music. My favorite band/singers are Tang Dynasty, David Tao, Hins Cheung.
