I am a rising third-year CS Ph.D. student at Stanford University, advised by Prof. Doug James. I work at the intersection of simulation, graphics, and AI.

My current research focuses on physics-based simulation and learning. More broadly, I am excited about building intelligent machines at scale that can understand, reason about, and act in the physical world — machines with reasoning grounded in physical knowledge and a thinking process that is traceable and verifiable, and that can ultimately assist people in the real world.

I received both my B.E. in CS and my M.S. from the University of Science and Technology of China (USTC), where I was very fortunate to be advised by Prof. Ligang Liu in the Graphics & Geometric Computing Lab. I have also worked with Prof. Bo Ren at Nankai University and Prof. Tao Du at the Institute for Interdisciplinary Information Sciences (IIIS), Tsinghua University.
