I am a second year PhD student in Computer Science & Engineering at The Ohio State University and a member of the OSU NLP Lab, advised by Prof. Yu Su and closely collaborating with Prof. Huan Sun. Previously, I worked as a Research Intern at Stanford SALT Lab, Netflix, Amazon, Adobe Research, and Microsoft Research Lab – Asia. I received my Master's degree from Dartmouth College and Bachelor's degree in Artificial Intelligence Honor Class at Shanghai Jiao Tong University.

My research interests lie in Language Agents, Agent Safety, (Recursive) Self-Evolving Agents, and LLM Alignment. I focus on developing methods to evaluate and improve the safety, robustness, and reliability of language agents and LLMs in real-world applications. I believe that agentic AI will drive the next industrial revolution, and I am excited to build agents that are not only capable but also safe, trustworthy, and continually self-improving.
