I'm a fourth year Ph.D. student of Computer Science at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, under the supervision of Eftychios Sifakis. I completed my B.S. in Computer Science & Technology from Nanjing University in 2018. I was also an exchange student at University of Waterloo from 2017 to 2018. I had to gap for one year in 2020 because of the covid pandemic. In that year, I worked as an intern in Microsoft Research Asia (MSRA). I continued my Ph.D. in 2021.

My research interest is on physics-based simulation, especially designing numerical solver for discretized partial differential equations. You can find my CV here.
