About Me

I am currently pursuing my PhD in the HumanISE Lab at Monash University, under the guidance of Dr. Chetan Arora, Prof Aldeida Aleti, and A/Prof. Kla Tantithamthavorn.

Prior to this, I obtained my M.Sc in Software Engineering from Jiangnan University under the supervision of Prof. Zhenping Xie, and my Bachelor of Information Systems and Electronic Business from Dalian Maritime University.

My primary research interests focus on LLMs-Driven Software Quality Assurance based on Requirements Engineering and Legal Compliance for Trustworthy LLM Reasoning.
