Biography

I am originally from Ames, Iowa. After graduating from high school, I enlisted in the Marine Corps and completed training to become a 6492 Precision Measurement Equipment Technician. My duties as a junior enlisted Marine included calibration and troubleshooting test equipment, used for maintaining Marine Corps aircraft. While stationed on Marine Corps Air Station Futenma, in Okinawa, Japan, I also attended junior college. After my tour of duty ended in Japan, I was sent to Miramar Air Station in San Diego, where I also attended junior college while serving. After serving five years, I left active service honorably as a Sergeant. I returned home to Ames and began pursuing a degree in electrical engineering at Iowa State University. In November of 2019, I began work at the ISU Center for Nondestructive Evaluation as an undergraduate research assistance. The research I assist with involves, 3D printing samples used in fully loaded waveguide measurements, designing and printing waveguides, used for specific measurement applications. My additional work includes, running scans with a VNA, and processing measurement data. Currently, I am halfway through my Sophomore year at ISU.

Biography

I was born into an ordinary Chinese family. My hobby is swimming and bicycling. During my time at secondary school, I was actively involved in robotics and inventions and participated in many regional or international competitions. Our team has been champion of Macau S.A.R. for several years in the VEX robot competition. The results for invention competitions have been outstanding. I have won gold medals and special awards in numerous international competitions. After becoming the freshman at the University of Macau, I realized that my knowledge is far from enough. I understand now that learning more and seeing more will be helpful for my future. So, I am looking forward to having more opportunity to broaden my field of vision.
