I am a first-year Ph.D. student at the School of Intelligence Science and Technology, Peking University, advised by Prof. Libin Liu. I received my B.S. in Artificial Intelligence from Yuanpei College, Peking University, in 2026.

My current research interest lies in mobile manipulation, multimodal learning, and humanoid agent, and I am also willing to explore additional domains in the future.

Personal Interests

In my spare time I enjoy sports — mainly soccer and table tennis — as well as listening to music, singing, hiking, and traveling to explore new places. I have visited 119 cities across 12 countries so far:

  • Asia: China (24/34 provinces), Singapore, Malaysia (Kuala Lumpur, Melaka), Cambodia (Phnom Penh, Siem Reap), Nepal (Kathmandu, Pokhara)
  • Europe: France (Paris, Cannes), Monaco, Italy (Rome, Florence, Venice, Milan, Naples), Vatican City, Russia (Moscow, Saint Petersburg, Vladivostok)
  • North America: United States (New York, Washington D.C., Chicago, Boston, Honolulu, Philadelphia, Denver — CVPR 2026)
  • Oceania: New Zealand (Auckland, Rotorua, Queenstown, Te Anau, Tekapo, Wanaka, Christchurch)
