About Me

I am currently a Ph.D. at MIT EAPS, working in Fiore Group with Prof. Arlene Fiore since Sep 2022. My current research surrounds chemistry-climate modeling with a focus on tropospheric ozone. Previously, I earned BS and MS in Environmental Science at Peking University under Prof. Shu Tao’s guidance. While at PKU, my work focused on utilizing air quality modeling to establish reduced-form models for black carbon.
