A Ph.D. student from School of the Earth Sciences and
Resources, China University of Geosciences, Beijing.
As a master's student at the University of Alberta, I am
excited to pursue original research on the relationships among
Jurassic-Cretaceous dinosaur tracks in China, and a re-description of the
mysterious carnivore "Dilophosaurus sinensis". I am also a lifelong
dinosaur stamps fan :)
