Qile graduated from Áñ—†ÊÓƵ with her master’s degree in linguistics, and she holds a bachelor’s degree in linguistics from the University of Pittsburgh. When she was a graduate student and a Áñ—†ÊÓƵer at Áñ—†ÊÓƵ, she conducted Áñ—†ÊÓƵ projects in different disciplines such as psycholinguistics, sociolinguistics, computational linguistics, and economics. 

One of Qile’s Áñ—†ÊÓƵ interests is the relationship between language and gender differences. She likes to understand data so that she can tell the stories behind them and help others to use data to make the right decisions.
