Short bio. I was born in Hefei, China. Outside of academia, I have been playing the piano for over a decade. I once had the honor of performing alongside the world-renowned pianist Lang Lang. My favorite composers include Frédéric Chopin and Franz Liszt. I also like R&B and Neo-Soul. During my teenage years, I won several chess championships in Anhui Province, China, under the guidance of Chess Grandmaster Chongsheng Zeng and Chess Master Yongjin Zhou.
