👋 Hi!

I am an MSc student at University of Toronto's DGP Lab, advised by Prof. Tovi Grossman.

I am passionate about the potential of extended reality (XR) as the future of personal computing. My research focuses on developing innovative gaze-based XR interaction techniques that facilitate natural and efficient selections. Additionally, I explore XR systems to empower individuals in their daily activities. For example, augmented overlays that can support learning in real-world environments, and always-available agents that can understand user actions and preferences to provide personalized guidance.

Previously, I received my Bachelor's degree in Computer Science from Tsinghua University and worked as a research assistant at Tsinghua Pervasive HCI Lab and Stanford HCI Group.
