(he/him)

I am a second-year Ph.D. student in the Computer Science Department at Purdue University, advised by Professor Zachary Kingston in the CoMMA Lab.

Before joining Purdue, I completed my B.S. at Shanghai Jiao Tong University and the University of Michigan. I later earned my M.S. at the University of Michigan, where I worked in the ROAHM Lab under the supervision of Professor Ram Vasudevan.

My research focuses on safe (multi-)robot motion planning and, more broadly, on combining model-based methods with learning-enabled components so that robots can carry out a range of tasks such as manipulation safely and efficiently.
