About Me

Hello there! I am an incoming PhD student in Applied Dynamics and Optimization Laboratory at Center for Robotics and Embodied Intelligence, New York University, advised by Professor Joo H. Kim.

I am currently pursuing my Master in Robotics and CIS at the University of Pennsylvania GRASP Lab, where I am fortunate to be supervised by Prof. Rahul Mangharam and Prof. Haimin Hu at Safe Autonomous Systems Lab. Previously, I obtained my Bachelor’s degree in 2024 from Shanghai Jiao Tong University, where I worked closely with Prof. Genliang Chen and Prof. Hesheng Wang.

My research interests broadly include human-robot interaction & collaboration, biomechanics, planning & navigation, and soft robotics. I am driven by the goal of creating safe and helpful robotic systems for the benefit of workers and patients.
