Hi👋 , I am a 2nd-Year CSE PhD student (2024Fall - 2029) at The Ohio State University, advised by Prof. Sachin Kumar. My research interests focus on the safety of large language models, multimodality, and embodied agents.

I previously completed my M.S. in Computational Biology at the Institute of Neuroscience, Chinese Academy of Sciences (2024), where I conducted research in computational neuroscience 🧠 with a focus on memory and sleep. I obtained my B.Sc. in CSE from Xi’an Jiaotong University (2019).

My industry experience includes an internship at Microsoft Research Asia (2018) and a subsequent role at Microsoft STCA (2019), where I primarily worked on semantic segmentation and neural network compression, with a particular focus on convolutional neural networks (CNNs).
