About

😊Hi, I'm a master student in Robotics at University of Minnesota, Twin Cities. I'm a research assistant in the Minnesota NLP group and the Visual Intelligence Lab, advised by Prof. Dongyeop Kang and Prof. Qianwen Wang.

💻My current research interest is Human-Computer Interaction(HCI).

🤔Specifically, I am interested in:

• Visualization: Making things explainable: what you see is what you get.
• Human-Computer Collaboration: Studying how people interact with technology to reveal fundamental aspects of human cognition, enabling the development of AI systems that better understand and respond to human needs.
• Social Computing: Understanding how technology shapes collective human behavior and designing systems that foster collaboration and shared intelligence.

Service

❤️I dedicate time to volunteer translation work outside academia, facilitating cross-cultural communication for non-profit initiatives.

🥼Our translation group is now working on a unique series - Therapist Plays Disco Elysium. Explore our work if you're interested in psychological interpretations of Disco Elysium, a critically acclaimed game exploring trauma and human consciousness through surreal detective noir(English with Chinese).

🎮Here's my translation work about video games(English to Chinese).

📖I'm currently studying Japanese and have passed the JLPT N4 level!

🎨Still trying to draw at least.

Life

🎁My new year present! I spend most of my other time playing video games. I've been waiting for the release of Silksong for 4 years.

😰I'm in the extremely painful process of applying for PhD programs for Fall 2026. Whether I succeed or fail, I plan to share all the materials I've used. I hope everything goes well for both me and all of you in the future.

💊The website's icon is False PHD from The Binding of Isaac, want to change it to PHD if possible...
