Building at the
edge of human & AI

I'm a Computer Science student at the University of Minnesota Twin Cities (CSE), passionate about the intersection of AI and human-computer interaction. I enjoy turning complex ideas into tools that feel natural to use — combining technical depth with creativity and a strong team mindset.

🤖

AI & Machine Learning

Exploring how intelligent systems can enhance everyday workflows — from data pipelines to user-facing AI features.

🖱️

Human-Computer Interaction

Fascinated by the way people interact with software. I design and build interfaces that feel intuitive and empowering.

Software Engineering

Experienced in Java and systems-level thinking, with a focus on building reliable, extensible tools that solve real problems.

🤝

Collaboration & Creativity

I thrive in team environments, bringing both creative vision and clear communication to every project I'm part of.

Where I've
made an impact

Guangzhou Dongding Intelligent Equipment Co., Ltd.
Software Engineering Intern
Dec 2025 — Feb 2026

Participated in hands-on development related to intelligent logistics equipment and AGV robotics. Gained in-depth understanding of industrial IoT systems including ERP, WMS, APS, and MES. Applied object-oriented programming (OOP) principles in real engineering contexts, and developed a solid foundation in intelligent manufacturing and smart logistics workflows.

TimeRail — IntelliJ Code History Plugin

An IntelliJ IDEA plugin that automatically captures visual snapshots of your code as you write. Using a line-change trigger with debouncing, TimeRail records a full screenshot of the editor and complete file state each time your caret moves to a new line. A translucent overlay displays a horizontally scrollable timeline of all snapshots — click any card to instantly restore the file to that exact moment.

EngineSim — Thermodynamic Engine Simulation

A Python simulation of a 6-cylinder internal combustion engine, modeling the full P-V cycle across 720° of crankshaft rotation. Sweeps a grid of environmental pressure and combustion temperature inputs and renders engine power output as an interactive 3D surface. A second enhanced model adds heat loss, temperature-dependent specific heat ratio, and combustion phasing efficiency.
