Bio
I am a third-year Ph.D. student at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, working with Daniel Szafir and Mingyu Ding. Previously, I was a researcher at the Center for Automotive Research (CAR) at The Ohio State University, working with Wei-Lun (Harry) Chao. I got my M.S. and B.Eng. degrees from The Ohio State University and Nanjing University of Posts and Telecommunications (NUPT).
My research sits at the intersection of multimodal sensing and robot learning, with a specific focus on leveraging heterogeneous signal integration to enhance robotic policies.
Alongside my research, I have a long-standing interest in embedded systems and oversee electrical system designs for IDEAL.
