About
Software/Electronic Engineer
Welcome to my website! I'm delighted to have you here. My name is Yuxuan Gu, and I'm pursuing my studies in the distinguished EEE department at Imperial College London.
As a dedicated and enthusiastic learner, I'm currently advancing through my dynamic journey as a 3rd-year student in Electrical and Information Engineering.
My fascination with the world of technology spans across a spectrum encompassing both hardware and software engineering, such as robotics, control systems and machine learning algorithms.
Intrigued by my unwavering passion, I proudly earned a place on the Dean's list—an accolade reserved for the top 10% of achievers within our cohort—in both Year 1 and Year 2 of my academic journey.
When I'm not coding or designing, you can find me harmonizing with the soothing melodies of the violin or engaging in energetic badminton matches that invigorate both my body and spirit.
These diverse pursuits not only provide a refreshing balance to my technical endeavors but also offer me a canvas to express my creativity and stay connected with the rhythm of life beyond the academic landscape.
