About

I’m a Mechanical & Robotics Engineer currently working as a Robot Hardware Engineer at Apple in Cupertino, where I design precision robotic systems for touch validation — spanning mechanical design, actuator selection, motion control, sensor integration, and deployment across high-volume manufacturing environments worldwide.

Before Apple, I spent two and a half years as a Mechatronics Engineer at KLA Corporation, where I led development of feedback and feedforward control systems for high-precision, 6DoF wafer stages and established the mechatronics architecture for next-generation semiconductor equipment. The work involved real-time deterministic control firmware over EtherCAT and building the tooling — tuning processes, data collection pipelines, analysis GUIs — that the engineering team relied on day to day.

Earlier, I co-founded WasteWizer Technologies, an IoT startup where I invented a smart scale system for remotely monitoring large waste containers. I handled everything from sensor integration and signal processing to firmware, software, and customer-facing prototype deployments.

I hold an MS and BS in Mechanical Engineering from Georgia Tech, where I also studied Mandarin Chinese. During my time there I worked as a Mechatronics Researcher in the Hu Lab for Biolocomotion, building motion control systems, kinematic models, and PCBs for a 3-DOF experimental robot.
