←Back to portfolioResearch & Technical Experience
Florida State University, Department of Physics
Undergraduate Researcher — Dr. Zhengguang Lu Lab / UROP
Fall 2026 – Present
Prepare graphene-flake datasets and train RF-DETR object detection in Roboflow for van der Waals quantum-material assembly. Validation: 86.8% mAP@50.
- Annotated and curated roughly 400–500 optical microscope images at 20–50× magnification, distinguishing graphene flakes from dust, contamination, and chip edges.
- Prepared training, validation, and test splits in Roboflow and trained/evaluated multiple RF-DETR Object Detection Medium iterations.
- Validation metrics: 86.8% mAP@50, 74.4% precision, 85.1% recall, and 79.4% F1.

Support diagnosis and repair of smartphones, tablets, and computers; gain hands-on experience with hardware troubleshooting, component replacement, and device repair workflows.
Technical Leadership
AWS Cloud Club at ACM at FSU
Project Chair
May 2026 – Present
Conceived and co-lead Matchob, an AI-assisted resume-tailoring browser extension with 15+ contributors across frontend, backend/AWS, AI, data, and QA/testing.
- Coordinate project scope, technical ownership, contributor onboarding, GitHub issues/epics, milestones, and cross-team integration.
- Matchob is designed to compare resumes with job descriptions, explain evidence-grounded recommendations, and avoid inventing unsupported experience.
- Help define AWS architecture with API Gateway, Lambda, Amazon Bedrock, S3, IAM, and CloudWatch; the extension uses WXT, React, and TypeScript.
