    About Me

    I graduated from the University of Minnesota-Twin Cities (2019) with EE and minor CS. Also, I have an M.Sc. in EE from California State University, Fullerton (2022), with experienced in EE hardware design and sensing.

    Previously, I worked in medical devices and bio-sensing at ACIST Medical System and Sensoriis in Calit2, University of California, Irvine.

    In free time, I enjoy exploring new places and foods, skateboarding, swimming, and gaming.
