About

I was born in Nantou Taiwan where I was adopted at the age of five and moved to Colorado for my first 10 years. After moving to New Mexico, I became passionate about photography, theater technology, science, and engineering. I volunteer for organizations such as the Boy Scouts of America and the Los Alamos Rotary Club in my free time. I currently work at Los Alamos National Laboratory in Detonator Productions division exploring my dream career of becoming an engineer. I test different designs and products while creating innovative solutions to different engineering problems. While at LANL, I have learned skills such as MATLAB, Visual Basic for Applications, SOLIDWORKS, Microsoft Suite, and Statistical Analysis. I have loved every moment at LANL and I hope to expand my horizons as a future engineer.
