As a junior at Princeton University, pursuing a major in Electrical Engineering with a concentration in Robotics and Cyber-physical Systems, I am eager to leverage my comprehensive theoretical knowledge in a hands-on internship. My academic focus includes topics such as circuit implementation and robotic systems, which have prepared me to contribute effectively in practical settings. I am keen to apply my problem-solving abilities and technical skills in a real-world environment to further my professional development and make a tangible impact.
