I am an incoming MRSD student in the Robotics Institute (RI) at Carnegie Mellon University. I have 3 years of working experience spanning quadruped robotics (vision-language navigation, learning-based control), 3D reconstruction, sensor fusion, and autonomous mobile robots 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, FRC robot (as team mentor), etc.
