About
- Digital logic, microcontrollers, and systems
- Curious, fast-learner, team collaborator
I’m a passionate Computer Engineering student with practical experience in both hardware and software development. Currently preparing to begin my journey at UC Davis in Fall 2025, where I’ll continue expanding my knowledge in cutting-edge technologies.
During my internship at San Francisco State University from June to August 2025, I gained hands-on experience in real-world engineering projects, collaborating with teams and applying theoretical knowledge to practical solutions.
I’m excited about the intersection of hardware and software, with particular interests in embedded systems, machine learning, and innovative computing solutions that can make a positive impact on society.
In addition to my academic interests, I enjoy sports such as soccer, badminton, billiards, and archery. While soccer was once my primary focus, I recently learned the others when I hang out with my friends. They are really nice and show me step by step on how to play these sports; I am grateful for their support and the memories we’ve made.
I also have a passion for cooking. Whenever I have free time, I enjoy helping my mom prepare dinner and learning her cooking techniques. I find joy in trying new recipes, as it allows me to discover new flavors and expand my culinary skills.
