Postdoctoral Fellow
Intuitive Computing Laboratory
Malone Center for Engineering in Healthcare
Department of Computer Science

Johns Hopkins University

I am a Postdoctoral Fellow in the Department of Computer Science at Johns Hopkins University, working with Prof. Chien-Ming Huang in the Intuitive Computing Laboratory (affiliated with the Malone Center for Engineering in Healthcare). I completed my Ph.D in Robotics Engineering at Worcester Polytechnic Institute in 2023, advised by Prof. Jane Li. ​​​​Prior to my doctoral studies, I worked as an associate researcher in the Service Robot Department at the Industrial Technology Research Institute from 2014 to 2018. I earned my M.S. in Biomedical Engineering from National Taiwan University in 2014 and my B.S. in Mechanical Engineering from Yuan Ze University in 2012.
​​​​
My research advances human-robot interaction with the goal of enabling the seamless integration of robots into people's daily lives. I develop algorithms and interfaces that empower end-users with diverse abilities and backgrounds to interact effortlessly with robots of varying hardware configurations and software capabilities in real-world applications through different paradigms ranging from direct operation to shared control to supervised autonomy. My work contributes to the future of adaptive and collaborative robots for large-scale human-robot symbiosis.
