About Me

I'm currently a Ph.D student in Electrical Enigeering at UC Davis. I'm fortunate to be advised by Prof. Junshan Zhang.

My research interests primarily lie in reinforcement learning, distributed learning, and foundation model (world model) with applications in Autonomous Driving, IoT and Edge Computing. My passion is on bridging the theory and the applications in the real world. If you want to know more about my work, please feel free to drop me an email.
