Last updated: October 2026

I'm a graduate student at Stanford, pursuing an M.S. in Computer Science. I work with Prof. Shuran Song at REALab on dexterous manipulation.

I did my B.S. in Computer Engineering at UIUC, where I worked with Prof. Wenzhen Yuan and Prof. Guanya Shi (at CMU) across tactile sensing, cross-embodied learning, and robot manipulation.

Selected Research

I’m interested in learning manipulation from large-scale human video for the humanoid form factor (dexterous hands).
