About
I've always been passionate about helping others, particularly through healthcare. My interest in optometry led me to work as an optometric assistant, where I gained valuable experience on the technical side of the profession. This role helped me recognize the importance of diagnostic equipment and technology in delivering quality care. Later, I had the opportunity to conduct engineering research related to opthalmology through UC Irvine and Alcon. This sparked my passion for designing tools that can directly improve people's lives. Now, I'm eager to apply the design skills I've devloped through my education to create products that enrich the lives of others.
