I am a postdoctoral scholar in Professor John A. Rogers's group at Northwestern University. I obtained my Ph.D. degree from Cornell University, advised by Professor Christopher K. Ober. Prior to that, I received a dual degree in B.S. in Materials Science & Engineering and B.S. in Statistics from the University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign, where I worked as an undergraduate research assistant in Professor John A. Rogers's group from 2015 to 2017 and Professor Steven C. Zimmerman's group from 2017 to 2018.

 

My research interest lies at the intersection of advanced lithography, bioelectronics, nanotechnology, polymer chemistry and physics, stimuli-responsive materials, and surface and interfacial science.
