I am a Computer Science Ph.D. student in CCVL research group at Johns Hopkins University, advised by Bloomberg Distinguished Professor Dr. Alan Yuille. I received my M.S.E. degree in Computer Science from Johns Hopkins University. Before this, I got B.E. in Mechanical Engineering and Double Degree in Mathematics from Beihang University. I build multi-modal generative systems for movie generation and scalable world modeling. I do product-driven research. I am on the job market. I host visiting undergraduates and graduate students in CCVL Lab.
