I am a CS Ph.D. student at Rutgers University, where I am advised by Prof. Dimitris N. Metaxas. I received my Master’s degree from the Renmin University of China, advised by Prof. Bing Su. My research interests lie in multimodal learning, with a focus on enhancing user alignment and image controllability in generative models. Recently, I’ve been working with autoregressive and diffusion models, particularly in the context of text-to-image generation and preference alignment. You can find my CV here.
I am currently looking for Research Intern positions for Summer 2026.
