About me
Hello! Thank you for visiting my website. I’m a second year Master’s student at Stanford studying Mechanical Engineering. Currently, I am a research assistant at Stanford-MSL working with Dr. Mac Schwager. Previous to that, I was a research assistant at UIUC-ACRL working with Dr. Naira Hovakimyan and Dr. Sheng Cheng. My interests and background are across robot VLA model, learning based control, autonomy robot visual navigation, and embodied AI. I received my Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering from both Zhejiang University and University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign in 2023. My Curriculum Vitae can be found here (updated April 2025).
