I’m a robotic researcher at Baidu Research in Sunnyvale, California. My research interests focus on robotic manipulation and robot learning.

I obtained my Ph.D. from UC Berkeley in Dec 2021, supervised by Prof. Masayoshi Tomizuka. Before joining Baidu, I had the opportunities to work at Google X/Intrinsic, MERL, FANUC.
