I am an incoming MRSD student in the Robotics Institute (RI) at Carnegie Mellon University. I am also currently a Robotics Research Engineer at Inventec AI. My work focuses on vision-language navigation, 3D reconstruction, learning-based control, and sensor fusion. Before joining Inventec AI, I worked on autonomous mobile robots, developing docking, navigation, and localization systems for warehouse logistics.

Previously, I received my B.Sc. in Mechanical Engineering from National Taiwan University. During my undergraduate studies, I specialized in mechanical design and developed various robotic systems, including wind-powered vehicles, UAVs, a billiard robot, tank reconstruction simulations, and a FRC robot (as team mentor).
