Curriculum Vitae

I am a PhD student at the University of Hong Kong (香港大學) under the supervision of Prof. Bruno Oliveira. My research interests are centered around programming languages. I received my Bachelor's degree in Computer Science and Technology from Chu Kochen Honors College of Zhejiang University (浙江大学) in 2019. I was an exchange student at Tokyo Institute of Technology (東京工業大学) under the supervision of Prof. Hidehiko Masuhara in 2017.

During the undergraduate years, I was the founder of ZJU Apple Club and a member of ZJU Supercomputing Team. I led the development of Qiushichao Mobile for iOS, which has been the most popular campus app at Zhejiang University.

I graduated from Yangzhou High School of Jiangsu Province, which is also China's ex-president Jiang's alma mater.

My Chinese name is 「孫耀珠（sūnyàozhū）」. For your information, it reads 「ソンヨウジュ」 in Japanese and 「손요주」 in Korean.
