Hello! I am an incoming PhD student at the University of Hong Kong (HKU). I received my M.Eng. degree in Electronic and Information Engineering from Shanghai Jiao Tong University (SJTU) in 2025, supervised by Professor Hongtao Lu. I also received my B.Eng. degree in Computer Science and Technology from SJTU in 2022, with Zhiyuan Honors Program of Engineering. I am happy to work with Professor Yuxiong Wang at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign as a visiting student in 2024.

My primary areas of research interest includes Embodied AI, Computer Vision, Multi-Task Learning, Representation Learning, Foundation Models, and Federated Learning.
