About Me

I am a postdoctoral research scientist in Earth and Environmental Engineering at Columbia University, hosted by Prof. Bolun Xu. My research interest include data-driven modeling, optimization under uncertainty, and market design for power systems with generalized energy storage (DERs). I am currently serving as the Youth Editorial Board Member of Power System Protection and Control and Energy Storage and Applications, and the guest editor of Processes and Frontier in Energy Research.

I received my B.S. degree in Electrical Engineering from Tianjin University, Tianjin, China, in 2018, supervised by Prof. Yanxia Zhang and the Ph.D. degree in Electrical Engineering from Tsinghua University, Beijing, China, in 2023, supervised by Prof. Lin Cheng. Before joining Columbia University, he was a visiting scholar at the Technical University of Denmark in 2022, supervised by Prof. Pierre Pinson and Prof. Mads R. Almassalkhi. He was a research associate in Electrical Engineering at Tsinghua University in 2024, supervised by Prof. Feng Liu. My CV is here.
