About
I work on planning and controls for autonomous vehicles at WeRide.ai. Previously, I worked on motion planning for industrial robot arms at XYZ Robotics Inc.
I received the M.Eng. degree from Duke University, where I did research on motion planning and optimal control at the Intelligent Motion Laboratory. I received my B.Eng. degree from Wuhan University of Technology.
