About Me
I am an undergraduate at the University of Michigan and Shanghai Jiao Tong University, studying Computer Science and Electronic and Computer Engineering.
My research explored how interaction feedback could improve AI-generated interfaces and support people and web agents. At Purdue University, I worked with Dr. Jason Wu on using interaction traces and feedback to improve generative UIs, contributing to RELIEF. I also worked with Dr. Yue Jiang and Dr. Ben Greenman at the University of Utah on detecting accessibility navigation failures, and with Prof. Honglak Lee at the University of Michigan on adapting web agents to evolving websites.
Research Interests
Human–Computer Interaction (HCI), Generative UI, Computer-use Agents, and Human–AI Interaction.
Selected Publications
A11yLTLNav: Automatic Detection of Accessibility Navigation Failures

Revision-Based Learning from Interactive Experience and Feedback
Manuscript, 2026. Submitted to NAACL 2027.
Research Experience
A11yLTLNav: Automatic Detection of Accessibility Navigation Failures
Research Assistant, University of Utah · May – Sep 2026
Advisors: Dr. Yue Jiang and Dr. Ben Greenman
I developed A11yLTLNav, a property-based checker for accessibility navigation failures encountered by blind and low-vision users interacting with generated interfaces.
RELIEF: Revision-Based Learning from Interactive Experience and Feedback
Research Assistant, Purdue University · May – Oct 2026
Advisor: Dr. Jason Wu
I investigated how user interaction traces provided implicit feedback for improving the usability of generated interfaces. This work contributed to RELIEF, which used feedback-guided interface revisions to construct supervision for fine-tuning code generation models.

WebCoEvo: Adversarial Co-Evolution for Web Agents
Research Assistant, University of Michigan · Mar – Jun 2026
Advisor: Prof. Honglak Lee
I developed WebCoEvo, an adversarial co-evolution framework that helped web agents adapt to changing websites by learning generalizable reflection rules from their failures.
