04 / BEYOND RESEARCH
Beyond Research
Outside academia, I enjoy running and mountaineering. As an undergraduate, I was a track and field athlete, competing in middle- and long-distance running and the 400 meters. In 2019, I was a member of Tsinghua University’s mountaineering team.
I approach research, teaching, and life with optimism, curiosity, and persistence. Sports are an important source of energy and balance in my daily life.
