Lake Sammamish, Bellevue, Aug 2023

I am a research scientist at Meta AI, Seattle. My primary research interests are vision-and-language and video modeling. I received my PhD in Computer Science from UNC Chapel Hill in 2022, advised by Tamara L. Berg and Mohit Bansal. I received my bachelor's degree in Computer Science from Yingcai Honors College, University of Electronic Science and Technology of China (UESTC) in 2017. I am a receipt of the Adobe Research Fellowship and the CVPR 2021 Best Student Paper Honorable Mention award.
