I am a PhD candidate working on the Interleaved Manipulator project. Currently I am working on MR-compatible actuation for investigating neurosystem. During my Master’s I worked on the Limb Deformity project, focusing on patient-specific feedback control mechanism development and validation for a limb lengthening device. I joined REACH lab in September 2014.

I am interested in Robotics, Mechatronics, and Control. I used to be a Teaching Assistant of ME 340 – Introduction to Dynamic Systems from Fall 2015 to Spring 2017. I received F.M. Young Distinguished Teaching Award granted by Pi Tau Sigma of UW-Madison in April 2017.
