About me

I am an ECE Ph.D. student in Dr. Willie Padilla's group at Duke University. My primary research interests lie at the intersection of metamaterials and machine learning, particularly exploring the new generation of metamaterials through machine learning. Under this research goal, I have worked on the design, simulation, fabrication, and characterization of metamaterial devices. I am also interested in optimizing and accelerating innovation for future prototypes of metamaterials, realizing their substantial potential in energy, sensing, and communication applications.

I started my journey in the states at the University of Rochester, where I received a B.S. in optical engineering. You can find my Curriculum Vitae here.
