I received my Master degree from Zhejiang University in March 2026, and will start my Ph.D. in Computer Science and Technology at Zhejiang University in September 2026, jointly trained with Shanghai AI Laboratory. Currently, I am an intern researcher at Shanghai AI Laboratory.

My research interests lie in continual learning, large language models (LLMs), and agents. I am particularly interested in building agents that can learn from it’s own experience, and improve through interaction over time.
