I received my Ph.D. in Aeronautics and Astronautics under the supervision of Mehran Mesbahi in 2023 and my M.S. in Applied Mathematics in 2022 from the University of Washington. See my Ph.D. dissertation, titled ``Optimal Control for Electrically Propelled Aircraft and Urban Air Mobility Network.’’ I received my B.S. in Automation in 2014 and my M.S. in Control Science in 2016 from Beihang University (BUAA).

My research interests includes energy management for electrically propelled aircraft, trajectory optimization; optimal control theory; numerical optimization; large-scale networks in Urban Air Mobility (UAM).
