I was born in Danjiangkou, a beautiful city in China. My hometown is located on the foot of Wudang Mountain famous for Taoism and Gongfu, and crossed by Hanjiang River famous for a large dam for generating electric power.

I had some research experience in the field of surface science before I was admitted to Temple University. In August of 2005, I graduated from McMaster University in Canada with a M.S. degree. My thesis focused on studies of functionalized carbon nanotubes and copper phthalocyanines with scanning tunneling microscopy. After graduation, I went back to China and stayed with my parents for a few months.

I joined the Borguet group in January, 2007. My research focuses on studying self-assembly of molecules on solid surfaces.
