Biography

I co-founded an autonomous driving software startup Momenta in September 2016. Currently our team is working on innovative computer vision solutions to allow self-driving cars to become a reality.

Before that I got my PhD degree in a joint Ph.D program between University of Science and Technology of China and Microsoft Research Asia. My supervisor is Dr. Jian Sun. Prior that, I received my B. Eng degree from the same department in 2011.

We are hiring! Join us in creating a safer and more fulfilling future through smart mobility.
