He (Albert) Zhang

Hi, My name is He Zhang (张鹤/zhāng hè/ in Chinese), or Albert. I am a second year PhD student in Informatics at the College of Information Science and Technology, Penn State University, advised by Dr. John M. Carroll. I am a student member of the Center for Socially Responsible Artificial Intelligence (CSRAI). I was a full-time research assistant in an interdisciplinary human-computer interaction lab (The Future Lab) at Tsinghua University. I owned Bachelor of Science degree with double-major in Computer Science and Data Science, issued by Massey University, New Zealand, and Master of Science degree, issued by Auckland University of Technology.
