🤵🏻 About Me

My name is Rui Zhu (Ray, 朱睿), an M.S. student at Carnegie Mellon Univerity. I received my bachelor’s degree from the School of Intelligence Science and Technology at Nanjing University, where I was fortunate to be advised by Prof. Lan-Zhe Guo.

My current research focuses on Multimodal Learning, LLM Post Training and RL Infra.
