一代戰神霍去病，曾在漢武帝賜豪宅時，悍然拒絕：”匈奴未滅，何以家為？”

​

但我無法認同這種說法。沒有家，焉有國？在四處征伐前，要認清要保護的是什麼，該珍惜的又是什麼。

​

因此我建立了這個網站，在我不停地向前走之前，希望能整理自己的思緒、紀錄自我的足跡，留下蛛絲一段，當我回首之時，仍能望見自己的起點。

I am pursuing for a Ph.D. degree at Florida State University. The research topic is fluid-solid interaction and flow control. I received my M.Sc. from National Taiwan University in 2016. My master thesis was about enabling a bio-inspired robot the ability to traverse on rough terrain with a model-based control method. I have my BS degree in physics.

​

The reason why I built this website is to leave a trace for me to look back at my roots in the future. I will record what I have gone through and what I think worth noting. This website will become an ever-growing time capsule, freezing all of the best, the worst, and the most unforgettable memories into pictures and words.
