About
I have a passion for understanding biological systems of life. When I was in middle school, my dad experienced a serious spinal injury. His Neurologist inserted a spinal stimulation device that would allow him to be pain free. Ever since then, it sparked my interest in how medical devices can improve functions for humans. This eventually led to my desire of becoming a biomedical engineer.
