Husband, researcher, poet and singer. Or just a dumb bunny.
Currently at Seed LLM, working on multimodal post-training.
Previously at Tencent AI Lab Seattle, August 2025–March 2026. PhD · Class of 2025 · UCLA PlusLab, under the supervision of Prof. Nanyun (Violet) Peng.
Research
My long-term research interest lies in measure-theoretic questions about language, especially how measures over language shape model intelligence, generalization, and training efficiency in reinforcement learning. My work on non-autoregressive modeling and post-training follows this same line of inquiry.

Outside research
Music
As an amateur singer, I am generally interested in R&B, thrash metal and pop rock, especially those from the 1990s.
Worldview
I generally identify myself as an agnostic antheist, with a strong interest in the history of religions and cultures, especially those related to Christianity.
