About me
I am a final-year Ph.D. candidate at MIT CSAIL, LIS Group, working with Leslie Kaelbling and Tomás Lozano-Pérez. I interned at NVIDIA Seattle Robotics Lab led by Prof. Dieter Fox during summer 2022. Previously, I obtained my bachelor's degree from Chu Kochen Honors College, Zhejiang University, where I worked with Prof. Xiaowei Zhou.

My research focuses on robot learning and planning, with an emphasis on generalization across visual changes, spatial constraints, and goal specifications. My previous work involves vision-language models, generative models (e.g., diffusion models), and task and motion planning.

I'm looking for full-time positions in the industry. Let's chat :)
