I'm now a fourth year graduate student at Stanford University, advised by Ciprian Manolescu. Before that, I did my undergraduate at Peking University, where my advisor was Yi Xie.  Here is my CV.

My research focuses on homological invariants in low-dimensional topology. I'm also curious about representation theory and symplectic topology, especially how developments in these areas can deepen our understanding of link homology theories. I'm fortunate to be supported by the Simons Dissertation Fellowship, and I'm affliated with a Simons Collaboration.

In a parallel universe, I might be an urban planner, a sociologist, or a songwriter.
