I'm a Lecturer in the College of Furnishings and Industrial Design, Nanjing Forestry University. My research lies at the intersection of ergonomics and human-computer interaction. I apply ergonomics methods to investigate how machines can better serve humans, with a particular focus on mental workload, interaction efficiency, and emotional evaluation.

Prior to joining Nanjing Forestry University, I spent a year at University of Toronto as a visiting scholar in the Human Factors & Applied Statistics Laboratory. I completed my Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering at Southeast University, and hold dual master degrees in Industrial Design from Southeast University and Monash University. I received my bachelor degree from Nanjing Institute of Technology, Nanjing, China.
