I am a senior researcher at Noah’s Ark Lab focusing on robot learning and motion planning. My goal is to build autonomy systems that react smoothly, behave predictably and work in real environments.

I earned my PhD in robotics at City University of Hong Kong, where I was advised by Prof. Jia Pan and worked on human robot interaction and motion planning. Before that, I earned my MSc in Robotics from the University of Bristol and received my BEng from Xi’an Jiaotong University.

Research interest: imitation learning, reinforcement learning, motion planning
