More Info & Projects


I am of Korean heritage and was born and raised on the East Coast of the United States.

My research background focused on signal processing and bioelectric signals, but my passion lies in developing clean, well documented code that solves interesting problems.

I've worked the most with scripting languages (MATLAB and python), but I am always looking to learn and familiarize myself with all the various languages out there - I'm not afraid to teach myself new languages and concepts.

Some Projects


Vision Research Stimuli Suite

Matlab/Psychtoolbox backend, Java + Psychtoolbox frontend

A custom vision research system, it is primarily tasked with generating & delivering visual patterns at high refresh rates.

The system uses two screens; the experimental screen to deliver stimuli and a user screen which has ui to control and adjust the stimuli.

During experimental routines, the system has additional duties alongside accurate visual delivery. The system communicates with a data acquisition system to reliably mark key trial points and process data for online feedback. The system is also responsible for controlling other subsystems, which it performs using analog and digital signals.


This Website!

HTML, CSS, Javascript, React, Gatsby

Built this website from the ground up!

Taught myself Gatsby, and all the underlying languages and frameworks the language depends on in a short period of time.

Creating this website was part of my efforts to understand modern web development, and strengthen my capabilities as a full stack developer.


Data Analysis Toolkit

Matlab and Python, Numpy and Matplotlib

Developed a set of scripts to process electrophysiology data.

Majority of time was spent parsing raw data files into annotated traces and implementing robust signal processing algorithms to process varying quality waveforms.

Written in both MATLAB and python to make it more accessible (both in terms of cost and language familitarity).
