Engineering hardware that flies, functions, and scales.
I am an Aeronautics & Astronautics student at the University of Washington with an FAA Airframe & Powerplant certificate. My work focuses on aerospace structures, UAV systems, flight controls, robotics, and manufacturing through hands-on engineering projects and research.
About Me
My background combines aircraft maintenance, aerospace engineering coursework, laboratory research, and student-led design projects. I am especially interested in the intersection of mechanical design, controls, autonomous systems, and manufacturable hardware.

Experience & Leadership
G3MS Lab, University of Washington
Conducting research under Prof. Avin Vijay focusing on automated fiber placement and additive manufacturing. Contributing to the development of a machine learning-based method to identify pre-cure automated fiber placement defects (overlaps, twisting, tow misalignment) and assisting in processing recycled polymer feedstocks into conductive filament for additive manufacturing workflows.
STEM Club
Supported campus engagement and event promotion, coordinating collaborative technical events to grow club membership and community involvement.
STEM Aircraft Design, Build, and Fly Team
Managed the complete project lifecycle. Established design review cadences, enforced documentation standards, and managed the budget, materials procurement, and machine shop access.
KOJOBS (Korean Job Research)
Structured workshop agendas, produced presentation decks, and organized session content to facilitate professional development events.
