About Me

Hello! I'm Celeste, a Year 3 Computer Engineering student at the National University of Singapore (NUS), graduating in 2027 with a B.Eng and continuing on to a Master's in 2028.

I started coding and tinkering with robotics from a young age, from early robotics projects, to robotics clubs, and then eventually to representing Singapore at international competitions. Over time, I’ve developed a passion for building reliable systems that bridge software, hardware, and real-world applications. Click here for more information.

At NUS, I’ve been involved with Team Bumblebee, first as Software Subteam Lead for HornetX and later contributing to the MiniAUV, which went on to compete at RoboSub 2025. I am currently working on an undergraduate research project to build afully autonomous drone for SAFMC 2026, further developing my expertise in robotics, embedded systems, and intelligent control.

Across these projects — underwater, land, and aerial — the common thread has been autonomy, building robots capable of sensing, decision-making, and autonomous action. I also enjoy the electronics that power these systems, from creating and working with ICs and PCBs to FPGA-based designs, and the challenge of integrating hardware with intelligent software. I am looking to work in fast-paced, collaborative environments and enjoy tackling problems that challenge me to design and build across every layer of a system.
