Education
University of California Irvine - Graduation Date 2024 GPA: 4.0
Bachelors in Chemical Engineering: Focus in Material Engineering | Minor: Computer Science
Research
University of California Irvine, California, School of Physics and Astronomy
Advisor: Professor Huolin Xin (September 2020-Present)
Conducting the loading of noble metals ions onto nitrogen and sulfur doped amorphous carbon to create an anode material for a high charge density, efficient, and stable commercial lithium metal battery candidate.
Received hands on experience with cutting edge edge spectroscopy technologies and instruments used to identify and characterize materials.
Nanjing University, China, School Chemistry and Chemical Engineering
Advisor: Professor Jin Zhu (June-August 2019)
Gained experience and knowledge with organic chemistry and various instruments used to conduct organic chemical reactions.
Conducted Organic Synthesis of Spiro[indene-1,4’-oxa-zolidinones]
Honed fluency of Chinese in an academic environment
Boston University, Boston, Massachusetts
Department of Biomedical Engineering, Electrical and Computer Engineering
Advisor: Professor Jin-Xin Cheng (June-September 2018)
Used COMSOL Multiphysics to simulate the viability of a needle-like instrument with a fiber-optic laser paired with an epoxy and graphite tip that can be used to noninvasively activate neurons mechanically via the photoacoustic effect
Gained experience with various optical and laser technologies
Experimented with creating the physical instrument, however, due to time constraints, could not get a working prototype
Projects
Munch, Web/Mobile Application:
Led the creation of a commercially viable application used by businesses and customers to effectively replace the purpose of menus and cashiers by creating a centralized platform for customers to order products.
Used: React Native, Javascript, HTML, CSS, Python | Built at MAHack V
Simplified Assembly Language Emulator:
Built an emulator that simulated a simplified version of a CPU that ran the a simple variation of the ARM instruction set in Swift
Miscellaneous:
Repaired 2008 BMW x3 fuel pump/ECU issue, Made a speaker out of paper and magnets, Modified a Seiko SKX007, Built a custom battery pack
Skills
Technical:
Programming: Swift, Java, HTML + CSS, Javascript, Visual Basic, Python, MATLAB, C
Software: Git, Excel, Firebase, LaTeX, Blender, Photoshop, Sony Vegas, Arduino, COMSOL
Instrumentation: Nion UltraSTEM™ 200, JEOL JEM-ARM300F Grand ARM TEM, Arduino
Miscellaneous: Automobile, Audio, Horology, Circuitry, Photography
Communication:
Fluent in Chinese and English
