I am a PhD student of Mechanical Engineering and Scientific Computing advised by Venkat Viswanathan at University of Michigan, Ann Arbor. My research interests lie in the intersection of computational intelligence, energy and environment. I received my Master’s in Mechanical Engineering at Carnegie Mellon University and Bachelor’s in Xi’an Jiaotong University. I did a research internship at Microsoft Research Redmond (2022), working with Bichlien H. Nguyen and Jake A. Smith.

I’m actively looking for research positions in industry and academia now. If you have suitable job openings or are interested in collaborations, please feel free to contact me.
