About Me
I am a PhD student in the HCI Lab at Hasso Plattner Institute working with Professor Patrick Baudisch. My research interest lies in Human Computer Interaction (HCI), specifically laser-cutting in personal fabrication.
I have always been interested in exploring materials and fabrication methods with my side-projects, which can be found in my portfolio.
Previously, I worked under the supervision of Professor Lung-pan Cheng and Professor Mike Y. Chen during my undergraduate studies at National Taiwan University on projects in personal fabrication, shape display, tangible interaction, haptics, and virtual reality. There, I majored in Computer Science & Information Engineering, with a minor in Mechanical Engineering.
