<h2>About me</h2>

<p class="influidcontainer">I am a Director in the Decision Sciences (Personalization Technologies) team at <a href="https://www.epsilon.com/us" target="_blank">Epsilon</a>. I build machine learning models at scale that deliver personalized marketing solutions for the client companies.

<!--  I also work on a research project related to <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Natural-language_generation">natural language generation</a>.</p>
 -->

<p class="influidcontainer">
I completed my Ph.D. degree in Geophysical Sciences at the University of Chicago in 2017. I worked with <a href="https://geosci.uchicago.edu/people/noboru-nakamura/" target="_blank">Professor Noboru Nakamura</a> on developing an atmospheric Rossby wave diagnostic theory, namely, the finite-amplitude local wave activity theory, that quantifies the severity of extreme weather events. This new diagnostic theory has led to the revolutionary discovery about the onset of atmospheric blocking [see <a href="http://science.sciencemag.org/content/early/2018/06/18/science.aat0721" target="_blank">Nakamura and Huang (Science, 2018)</a>].</p>

<p class="influidcontainer">I am actively maintaining <a href="https://github.com/csyhuang/hn2016_falwa" target="_blank">the open-source analysis package on GitHub</a> to make this diagnostic technique widely accessible to researchers.</p>

<p class="influidcontainer">Here are my <a href="http://scholar.google.com/citations?user=o7pWZxkAAAAJ&hl=en" target="_blank">Google scholar page</a>
and <a href="{{ site.cv_link }}" target="_blank">academic CV</a>.</p>

<p class="influidcontainer">Prior to attending graduate school, I spent my first 21 years of 
life in Hong Kong. I did my B. Sc. degree in Physics at <a href="http://www.cuhk.edu.hk" target="_blank">The Chinese University of Hong Kong</a>
with double-minor in Mathematics and German Languages.</p>

<p class="influidcontainer">In my spare time, I like writing and making music. I occasionally share 
my vocal performances and improvised piano covers on <a href="https://www.youtube.com/c/ClaresStudio" target="_blank">my YouTube channel</a>.</p>
