ABOUT ME
I am a Shuimu Scholar at Tsinghua University, in Beijing, China. I was a Diretor's Postdoctoal Fellow at the Los Alamos National Laboratory in New Mexico, USA, between 2021-2023. My research focuses on understanding how forming planets and binary star systems interact with their surrounding discs of gas and dust. For more details, and a list of my publications, head over to my Research page.
Outside of research I enjoy communicating all the exciting things that human beings know about the cosmos. For a list of the outreach events I have been a part of, or if you would like to request a public talk, check out my Public Outreach page.
​
My other interests and hobbies include astrophotography, playing piano, hiking and exploring nature.
