Hi! I am a Ph.D. student at UW Electrical & Computer Engineering, advised by Prof. Yiyue Luo. My research focuses on wearable sensors and actuators integrated with machine learning for applications in healthcare, robotics and human–computer interaction.

Before joining UW, I received my Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees in Mechanical Engineering at KAIST, where I studied soft tactile sensors.
