About me

I'm a Ph.D. student in Paul G. Allen School of Computer Science & Engineering at University of Washington, fortunate to be advised by Prof. Simon Shaolei Du.

Previously, I worked at xAI, focusing on coding agents. Prior to that, I interned at Microsoft, where I was fortunate to be advised by Yelong Shen and Shuohang Wang. Prior to UW, I studied Computer Science and Mathematics at Zhejiang University, where I earned an honors degree from Chu Kochen Honors College.

My long-term research goal is to develop safe and scalable AI systems with super-human capabilities that can drive significant scientific progress. My recent research interests focus on self-evolving AI, reinforcement learning, long-horizon coding agents, and AI for science. Before that, I have also explored data selection, multimodal learning, and machine learning theory.
