Guannan Wei
I’m a third-year Ph.D. student in Computer Science at Purdue University, working with Tiark Rompf. I’m interested in programming and programming languages. I’m also a member of Purdue’s Programming Languages (PurPL) group.
Previously I received M.S. degree in Computer Science from the University of Utah, under Matt Might’s research group. I majored in Laws and Business Management as an undergraduate at China University of Geosciences, Beijing.
I was an intern at Galois (Summer 2018) in Portland, Baidu (Fall 2013), and two tech-startups (2012-2013, 2014-2015) in Beijing.
I like photography, check out my gallery and Instagram. I’m also interested in economics, Austrian Economics, and astronomy.
I occasionally write something in my Blog about computer science or what I read recently.
