My research has been revolving around large scale structures, especially galaxy clusters, in optical surveys such as SDSS, DES and LSST. I like looking at galaxy evolution mechanisms and cosmological effects in those surveys, and meanwhile super interested in data processing and analyses techniques to be used in those data. I also like working with students and doing outreach activities.

In my spare time, I love reading books, especially non-fiction books. I am also keen to try different sports, and so far have successfully avoided getting good at any.
