I was born and raised in Qingdao, Shandong in China. In 2020, I attended Fuzhou University as a freshman. During my time at FZU, I worked under Professor Keyin Ye and took part in the projects electrophotocatalytic oxygenation of multiple adjacent C–H bonds and electrochemical oxyazidation of α-arylvinyl acetates. In the fall of 2023, I transferred to the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign as a junior and joined the Denmark group. I am interested in chemoinformatics and asymmetric catalysis. In my free time, I enjoy cooking, playing the piano, and reading books.
