ABOUT ME
I am a UCLA Mechanical Engineering graduate with expertise in CAD design, 3D printing, and rapid prototyping, skilled in SolidWorks and AutoCAD. At UCLA, I optimized a ceiling-climbing robot, enhancing efficiency and control by integrating research insights into practical design. My experience at WZI and as a Technical Coordinator strengthened my ability to collaborate across disciplines, analyze complex systems, and lead teams toward innovative solutions. I am particularly passionate about medical device R&D, studied in medical imaging and durg delivery, where I can apply my creativity and technical expertise to improve patient outcomes while bringing adaptability and a research-driven mindset to engineering challenges.
Ceiling Climbing Robot
Developed a functional ceiling-climbing robot designed to navigate inverted surfaces, utilizing a propellor to create negative pressure to adhere to rigid surfaces. Leveraged CAD modeling (SolidWorks) and 3D printing to create optimized prototypes,...
Targeted Drug Delivert Proposal for Ataxia-Telangiectasia (A-T)
Developed a groundbreaking drug delivery approach that combines blood–brain-barrier–penetrating lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) with antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs) to correct gene splicing errors in ataxia-telangiectasia, presenting one of the first...
Electrocardiogram (ECG) Device – Compact, Interactive At-Home Monitor
Developed a compact, at-home ECG device integrating a 3D-printed enclosure, custom PCB, and interactive mechanisms. The system displays the QRS complex on an ST7789V display, incorporates a piezo buzzer for musical feedback at specific heart rates,...
