About Me

Welcome! My name is Yixuan (pronounces like ee-shuan). I am a postdoctoral researcher at Graduate School of Oceanography, University of Rhode Island, working with Dr. Melissa Omand. This website briefly shares my research work and interests with the world. I like indie rock (recent favorite: The Strokes) and am a fan of Tottenham Hotspur (COYS) & Penn State Nittany Lion.

Please feel free to contact me.
