I am currently a second year PhD student in the Department of Astronomy and Astrophysics at University of California Santa Cruz (UCSC), working with Prof. Alexie Leauthaud and Prof. Sandra Faber on observational cosmology and galaxy formation. I got my Bachelor’s of Science in Astronomy at Nanjing University (NJU) in 2017. After that I worked at the National Astronomical Observatories, Chinese Academy of Sciences (NAOC) as a research assistant of Prof. Shude Mao for one year. I have experiences on various astronomical researches including the Gamma-ray bursts, dust in galaxies, the link between galaxy structure and quenching processes, and the co-evolution between galaxy and dark matter.
I was born in Beijing, China. I became a stargazer who likes to do amateur astronomical observation and astrophotography since 2009. Although I have been in the professional astronomy field for several years, I still maintained my interest in astrophotography with small telescopes. I use my Canon 5D Mark III to do photography in my spare time. On the left is a short video of the Milky Way that I took while camping on Panoche Hills in California. And you can find my photographs here.
