About Me

Hi there! I am a junior undergraduate student from Huazhong University of Science and Technology (HUST). I am currently pursuing a degree in Computer Science (2023 - 2027) with a background in Management & Medicine (2022).
Currently, I am interning at Shanghai AI Lab, and also joining NYU Courant as a student intern, advised by Prof. Saining Xie. Previously, I was fortunate to work with Prof. Min Yang.
⭐I’m looking for some long-term research internships and summer research opportunities. Please feel free to contact me!
