More About Me : )

I grew up in Hangzhou (杭州) and attended Sandunzhen Central Elementary School (三墩镇中心小学), Cuiyuan Middle School (翠苑中学), and Hangzhou No.4 High School (杭州第四中学). After that, I went to Zhejiang University (ZJU), also located in Hangzhou.

During my undergraduate years, I cherished the opportunities to explore beyond the confines of my beloved home university, which generously supported my international experiences. My travels included a semester at the University of Trento, Italy, through the ERASMUS+ program. I undertook a summer internship at York University, Canada, as part of the Mitacs Globalink program, working under the guidance of Professor Gerd Grau. Additionally, I participated in the Master Kong Dream Scholarship Programme at Waseda University, Japan, supervised by Professor Sachiko HIRAKAWA.

I studied computational fluid dynamics during my undergraduate. At York University, I worked on simulating a hydrodynamically focused printing process. At Waseda University, I was exposed to public policy and studied Japanese government’s measures against Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs). I have also worked on semantic segmentation of satellite images at the State Key Laboratory of Satellite Ocean Environment Dynamics, under the supervision of Professor Gang Zheng. This research ultimately formed the basis of my bachelor’s thesis.

My interests include travel, skiing, and basketball. Musicals are a passion of mine, with “Les Misérables” and “Hamilton” being among my favorites. Update: On June 5, 2024, I finally watched Hamilton during its international tour in Singapore. :)

I believe in Diversity, Equity & Inclusion. I am committed to promote these values.
