Born in Xi'an, Shaanxi. Started in philosophy, then pivoted to engineering. Now finishing a B.S. in Biomedical Engineering at Miami University, working across tissue optics, behavioral neuroscience, and embedded biosignal processing systems.
Decades of living with psychiatric illness led me toward a single question: how do we physically intervene in mental suffering? Next step is graduate work in psychiatric brain-computer interfaces at Mount Sinai, pursuing multimodal physical therapies for psychiatric conditions.
Outside the lab, I make things. Drawing, painting, calligraphy, photography, writing. I watch too many films and listen to too much music. I play video games late at night.

Theoretical framework on state transitions between panic and dissociative states via dynamical systems theory.
Manuscript in Preparation ↓Interactive 3D brain visualization mapping EEG frequency bands and emotional states onto independent anatomical region volumes. Each state drives cfos-style fluorescent puncta, live waveform rendering, and procedurally generated stream-of-consciousness text. Built with Three.js + React.
Web Project ↗Optical characterization of tissue phantoms using DIS system and inverse adding-doubling software. Transport MFP and diffusion approximation criteria.
In PreparationBuilt an end-to-end behavioral neuroscience analysis pipeline integrating DeepLabCut pose estimation and SimBA-based behavior classification. The workflow converts raw top-view mouse videos into tracked body-part coordinates, annotated behavioral states, and quantitative outputs for downstream analysis.
Behavioral neuroscience poster on how baseline anxiety and acute trauma shape defensive behavior in mice across elevated zero maze, fear conditioning, open field, and resident intruder assays.
Senior capstone colorimetric glucose biosensor for pediatric users. I independently managed the electrical and firmware subsystem: MCP6002 transimpedance amplifier, BPW34 photodiode integration, ESP32 signal acquisition, OLED display, ambient-light correction, and kinetic calibration firmware.
Investigated adsorption kinetics using activated biomass for low-cost water treatment. Conducted pyrolysis, BET surface-area analysis, TGA, colorimetry, and pH optimization. Team achieved >90% manganese removal efficiency.
Lab Contribution ↗Characterized nonlinear hyperelastic and viscoelastic behavior of silicone rubber and porcine skeletal muscle under uniaxial tension and compression. Fitted four-term Ogden model (R² = 0.997).
Course Project ↓Derived PK1 stress predictions under uniaxial tension and simple shear for incompressible Mooney–Rivlin materials. Demonstrated nonlinear strain-stiffening in tension and linear shear response.
