About Me

I recently completed my B.Eng. through a dual-degree program from the University of Glasgow and UESTC. I had the opportunity to gain valuable experience under the mentorship of Dr. Yu Zeng during a research collaboration that spanned from the fall of 2022 to the summer of 2023. From August 2023 to December 2023, I joined the EIC Lab at GaTech. Most recently, from May to September 2024, I was enrolled in the SyntheSys Lab, KAUST where I conducted research under the mentorship of Prof. Jian Weng.

Note: I will join the Computer Science & Engineering division at the University of Michigan as a PhD student in Fall 2025.
