Hi there! I am Ziming Zhao (赵子铭), who graduated from University of Michigan, Ann Arbor in 2023 with a master's degree in Data Information Science. After graduation, I had a one-year working experience as machine learning engineer at Alibaba, Ant Group. I obtained my bachelor’s degree in Computer Engineering from Shanghai Jiao University in 2021. If you are interested in my research or other aspects, feel free to email me at zhziming[at]umich[dot]edu

Academic Background

• Sep 2021 - Jan 2023: M.Sc., Unversity of Michigan, Ann Arbor
