About πŸš€

I am a master's student at Rice University, focusing on robot task and motion planning in the RobotΠ lab, managed by Professor Kaiyu Hang. My primary interest lies in complex task and motion planning problems. I am keen on developing Large Language and Multi-Modal Models in robotics. My ultimate goal is to develop a capable and robust robot that can not only perform known tasks perfectly but also handle novel situations appropriately.

I enjoy working out, going on road trips, cooking, and listening to K-pop.
