I care about loving God and people.
Undergraduate student at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, studying Computer Science and Physics.
My research interests lie in reinforcement learning with agents. I want to build smart, autonomous, tool-using agents. Currently a researcher at ULab UIUC, advised by Professor Jiaxuan You. I'm super grateful to have a group of people with similar goals on building smarter intelligence.
Previously, I collaborated with the NVIDIA math reasoning team through Dr. Branislav Kisacanin, where I
designed the math olympiad dataset for our published study. For two years in high school I worked with the amazing
QMCPy team, advised by Professsor Fred Hickernell and designed many randomization techniques.
Also super thankful to be part of the 2025 Heidelberg Laureate Forum as a Young Researcher! I was able to have meaningful conversations with many legendary figures like Richard Sutton, David Silver, Pat Hanrahan, Sanjeev Aurora, Ngo Bao Chau, Jack Dongarra, Bob Tarjan and many more!
