About me

2010–2017 2017–2020 2020–

I started working in speech and language as a master student with Lin-Shan Lee at National Taiwan University, and have stayed in this field since then. I spent wonderful years doing PhD with Karen Livescu at Toyota Technological Institute at Chicago. Before coming to Edinburgh, I was a post-doctoral associate at MIT in the Spoken Language Systems group led by Jim Glass.

Feel free to reach out if you have any questions about me and my work. I am always happy to hear from students and colleagues who are interested in speech and language.
