Keep curiosity alive.

Research Areas: Motion Control and Perception, Differentiable Physics, and Robot Learning.

I am now a Ph.D. student at the Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering Department, UCLA, under the supervision of Prof. M. Khalid Jawed. My research interests include motion control, robot learning, and differentiable physics. I am passionate about exploring how these areas can be integrated to advance the capabilities of intelligent robots.

Ph.D. Student, University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), USA (2025 – Present)

M.S. in Science, Peking University, China (2022 – 2025)

B.S. in Automation, North China Electric Power University, China (2018 – 2022)
