Mixed-Signal IC Designer & Occasional Filmmaker

Boring IC designer & Occasional film maker

I design integrated circuits for energy-efficient computing — voltage regulators and PDN for modern SoCs and accelerators, clock generation, digital control, and physical design. At the boundary of circuits and computation, I’m also interested in architectures and simulators for emerging HBM/DRAM.

Advised by Prof. Mingoo Seok at Columbia University. Outside the lab, I shoot photos and short films with my camera and drone.
