About

I am a master student at ETH Zurich, working for a master's degree in Computational Science and Engineering in the Department of Mathematics. I really love animals, especially cats. One of my dreams is to become financially independent so that I can finally adopt a cat and have a furry friend in my life.

Previously, I graduated from Harbin Institute of Technology, Shenzhen with a bachelor's degree in Automation. Moreover, I spent a wonderful time working at AIRS in 2023. Besides, I am pleasure to be a remote intern at Baidu Inc. about deep learning from 2020 to 2023.

My current research focuses on multi-robot systems, cooperative manipulation, and the interaction and coordination mechanisms that enable efficient robotic teamwork.
