Intro

I recently graduated with a Master's degree from the Robotics Institute at Carnegie Mellon University, where I worked with Prof. Abhinav Gupta on foundation model. During my graduate studies, I also collaborated with Prof. Xiaolong Wang at UC San Diego, focusing on robotic manipulation and computer vision. Prior to CMU, I conducted research at MVIG Lab, Shanghai Jiao Tong University, under the supervision of Prof. Cewu Lu and Dr. Wenqiang Xu.

I am currently seeking PhD positions for Fall 2025. My research interests include generative AI for robotic perception and manipulation, reinforcement learning and imitation learning, visual representation learning using Internet-scale data.
