About Me

I’m a Ph.D. candidate in the Ecology and Evolutionary Biology department at the University of Toronto, co-supervised by Dr. Stephen Wright and Dr. John Stinchcombe. I’m interested in plant evolutionary genomics. My CV is availabe here (updated Oct. 2024).

I received my B.S. in Biological Sciences with a minor in Software Engineering at Sichuan University in 2019.

For my PhD thesis, I’m interested in the evolutionary genomics of plant gametophytic selection. Check out my Research page for more information. Feel free to reach out if you’re interested in my work and want to chat :)
