About Me

From early curiosity to fault-tolerant hardware.

I am a master’s student in Electrical and Computer Engineering at Purdue University, currently working on my thesis focused on detecting faults during PCB fabrication. My fascination with electronics began early and has grown through academic excellence, hands-on projects, and research in areas such as VLSI, digital systems, and hardware design.

Experiences with Verilog, embedded systems, machine learning applications, and an internship at ECIL strengthened my interest in hardware reliability and integrated circuit design. My goal is to become an RTL design engineer and contribute to developing robust, efficient semiconductor and PCB technologies for next-generation electronic systems.
