🔎 About Me

I’m a freshman PhD candidate at Shanghai Jiao Tong University and Shanghai AI Lab, researching on the topic of Multi-modal Learning and AI for Science (AI4Sports) supervised by Prof. Weidi Xie and Prof. Yanfeng Wang. I finished my undergraduate at 〽️ UMich-SJTU Joint Institute majoring in Electrical & Computer Engineering with Data Science minor degree.

I was dreaming about becoming an athlete or a journalist in professional sports, luckily AI gave me another chance to dive into sports media industry. I believe sports is all about human’s body and mentality, hope AI truly benefits sports media a lot in the future. Feel free to contact me if interest.
