About me

I am a final year PhD student in robotics at University of California, Berkeley adviced by Prof. Masayoshi Tomizuka. I received B.S. in Mechanical Engineering from University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, and B.S. in Electrical and Computer Engineering from Joint Institute, Shanghai Jiao Tong University.

My research interest lies in Robotics (skill learning, control and planning) and Autonomous driving (interaction generation, behavior prediction).

I'm joining Boston Dynamics AI Institute as a Research Scientist in June, 2024.
