I'm currently a Ph.D. candidate at the department of Civil and Environmental Engineering in Colorado School of Mines, and also a student researcher in ReNUWIt, which is an interdisciplinary, multi-institution engineering research center whose goal is to Re-Inventing the Nation’s Urban Water Infrastructure. I received my master’s degree from University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and bachelor’s degree from Tongji University (China), both in environmental engineering. My research focuses on resource recovery from wastewater.
