    Shanghai Jiao Tong University and the University of Michigan in 2013. During my freshman and sophomore years at Shanghai Jiao Tong University, I led some embedded system related projects, and developed small applications on different kinds of microprocessors. Writing software that is so close to hardware made me curious about how these microprocessor’s internal architecture works. Therefore, I declared my major in Computer Engineering when I started my junior year at the University of Michigan. However
