Background

Research across
devices and circuits.

I am pursuing a B.S. in Electrical Engineering at Purdue, concentrating in Microelectronics and Semiconductors. In Wang’s Thin Film Group, I work on memristive devices and their models. At the NanoX Lab, my work includes CMOS+X integration, automated characterization, and mixed-signal circuits.
