I am an associate professor at the School of Mathematics and Statistics of the Beijing Institute of Technology.

Before joining the BIT in April 2019, I have been a researcher and lecturer at the University of Sydney (Australia), the University of Bonn (Germany), and the University of Cologne (Germany).

I received my Ph.D. at the University of Cologne (Germany) under the supervision of Peter Littelmann and did my undergraduate studies at the University of Wuppertal (Germany).

In research, my main interests are representation theory and categorification, especially with their applications to Lie theory, combinatorics, low dimensional topology, link homologies, and algebraic geometry.
