I am a first-year doctoral student in ECE at UBC Robotics and Control Lab, under the supervision of Dr. Tim Salcudean. My research interests include robotics, surgical robots, teleoperation, and machine learning in medical applications. I hold a Master of Computer Science degree in data science from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. Before that, I was a software engineer at Cornerstone Robotics and Precision Robotics, and a research assistant at the Medical Robotics Center. I have co-authored two publications and six patents (four first-authored and two second-authored) on surgical robot control methods and teleoperation systems. I obtained my Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering from the University of Hong Kong in 2019.
I have 6 years of experience in C++ programming, Robotics, and mechatronics system integration. I have developed advanced robot software architectures and control frameworks specialized for surgical robots. My background spans real-time software systems with complex behaviors and mechatronics and medical engineering applications.
Skilled in Python, C++, C, Matlab, ROS, MCU firmware (STM32), Linux (Ubuntu and embedded Linux), Git, CI/CD, Docker, and UI frameworks such as Qt and QML.
