About Me
I build robotics perception systems that move from research prototypes into products people can actually use.
A research foundation shaped by perception, systems thinking, and real-world engineering.
My training spans pattern recognition, intelligent systems, and computer science, giving me a way of working that moves comfortably between theory, implementation, and deployment constraints. That foundation still shapes how I approach robotics perception today: rigorous in method, clear in system design, and practical in execution.
I am a robotics and computer vision engineer focused on perception systems that move from research prototypes into real-world products. I received an M.Res. with Distinction in Pattern Recognition and Intelligent Systems from the University of Liverpool, supported by the Huzhou Institute of Zhejiang University, and a B.Eng. in Computer Science and Technology from Southern University of Science and Technology (SUSTech).
My background spans academic research, startup engineering, and industry-facing technical development. Over three years as a research assistant, I worked on robotics and perception topics across academic projects and commercialization-oriented collaborations, with hands-on experience in algorithm development, product execution, and interdisciplinary teamwork.
I also spent time exploring the intersection of frontier technology and capital. That experience gave me a broader view of how emerging technologies are evaluated, funded, and translated into viable products, and it still shapes how I think about applied research: ambitious enough to matter, but grounded enough to ship.
Research Interests
My main interests include machine learning, pattern recognition, robotics perception, and computer vision. Outside work, I enjoy photography, hiking, football, and visual storytelling. You can find some of my photos and illustrations here.
If you are working on a related problem or building something ambitious in robotics, I would be glad to connect.
