about me

Hi 🌊! I'm a second-year PhD student in UC San Diego's CS Theory Group where I am very lucky to work with Barna Saha and Russell Impagliazzo. I am interested in algorithm design, fine-grained complexity, as well as computational complexity and learning theory.

about me

Hi 🌊! I'm a second-year PhD student in UC San Diego's CS Theory Group where I am very lucky to work with Barna Saha and Russell Impagliazzo. I am interested in algorithm design, fine-grained complexity, as well as computational complexity and learning theory.

Previously, I worked for a year as a Quantitative Analyst in the Fixed Income, Secured Lending Group at Morgan Stanley. Before that, I received my undegraduate degree in mathematics from Princeton in 2021, where I was fortunate to work with Gillat Kol. I also completed an internship with the AI Infrastructure Group at aidoc during the summer of 2019.

When not at the office, I enjoy running, biking, soccer, and volleyball. I also like to cook and bake in my spare time (feel free to send your favorite recipes my way!).

You can reach me at czye (at) ucsd (dot) edu

Thank you to Sharon for giving me the template to her personal website.
