I am a Research Assistant at OpenDriveLab, The University of Hong Kong, supervised by Prof. Hongyang Li.
I earned my M.Phil. in Robotics and Autonomous Systems from the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (Guangzhou), where I worked in RIL-Lab under the supervision of Prof. Qiang Nie and was co-supervised by Prof. Renjing Xu.
My research interests focus on humanoid motion control, whole-body control, and loco-manipulation. I have recently been exploring agentic robotics.
