Hi there!
I am a Ph.D. student in Computer Science at Arizona State University, working in the Active Perception Group advised by Prof. Yezhou (YZ) Yang. My research focuses on generative AI, especially text-to-image generation, reliable text rendering, and localized image editing. I aim to make multimodal models more controllable, trustworthy, and ready for real‑world creative and decision‑making tools.
