Jingyi Xiang 向婧怡 (She/Her)
Pronounced as Jing-Yi She-aang

I am a first-year computer science Ph.D. student at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, advised by Prof. Wenzhen Yuan. My research interests include tactile sensing and robotic manipulation.
I obtained my B.S. in electrical engineering at UIUC with Highest Honor, during which I led the development of deformable linear object tracking algorithms while working with Prof. Timothy Bretl.
I do a bunch of random things outside of research. I studied voice for almost 10 years when I was a teenager. I also draw and take photos.
