Intro

Hello, I'm a SLAM engineer, dealing with the range sensors such as Radar, LiDAR, and Sonar. If you are interested in my research, check out my CV for Engineering.
Also, I am a keyboard player and composer who provide instrumental accompaniment. If you are interested in my music, check out my CV for Music.

In both cases, please feel free to contact me if you have any inquiries.
