About

Hi, I am a fifth-year Ph.D. student at The Chinese University of Hong Kong, Shenzhen, where I am supervised jointly by Prof. Xiang Wan and Prof. Guanbin Li and also work closely with Prof. Benyou Wang. Currently, I am a visiting student researcher at Stanford University. I received my B.Eng. degree from Sun Yat-sen University in 2019, and then became a Ph.D. student at CUHK(SZ). My research lies at the intersection of vision+language and large language models. I am always open to collaboration. Feel free to drop me an e-mail. :-)
