I am a third-year Ph.D. student in computer science at Stanford University advised by Leonidas Guibas. My research interests include 3D computer vision and geometric deep learning. I am particularly interested in developing and leveraging better data representations in 3D shape analysis and processing.

I had the pleasure of collaborating with Kostas Daniilidis (UPenn) and Jeannette Bohg. I also did a rotation with Jiajun Wu in Spring 2021 and an internship with Ron Fedkiw in Summer 2019 through the UGVR program. I obtained my B.S. in mathematics from Tsinghua University in 2020 with a GPA ranking 1/114

"A scientific theory is usually felt to be better than its predecessors not only in the sense that it is a better instrument for discovering and solving puzzles but also because it is somehow a better representation of what nature is really like."    -- Thomas Kuhn. The Structure of Scientific Revolutions
