	"I was raised in Guangzhou, China and received my undergraduate degree from Wuhan University. In 1983, I came to the US through the Ray Wu (CUSBEA) program and received my graduate education at Harvard University. I was fortunate to do my Ph.D. research in the lab of Dr. Victor Ambros, where I worked on the molecular genetics of C. elegans postembryonic development. In 1991, I joined the lab of Dr. Elliot Meyerowitz at Caltech as a postdoctoral fellow and started my career as a plant geneticist. In 1995, I was appointed to the faculty of the University of Maryland and continue my research in plant reprodutive development."

	Originally from Staten Island, NY, I joined the Liu Lab as a PhD student in 2007 after working as a laboratory technician for several years at Johns Hopkins University and the University of Maryland, Baltimore. My research focuses on transcriptional regulation of carpel development in Arabidopsis as well as flower and fruit development in diploid strawberry. I like to brew beers, camp, and fix my house in my spare time.
