Work Experience

Interactive Music Game Developer at Bouncy Dodge

October 1, 2025 - Present

Designed an interactive music game system based on Max/MSP/Jitter, mapping player movement and collision behaviors to MIDI events to enable real-time, dynamic audio–visual interaction. Implemented synchronization between gameplay states and generative music structures. Integrated game logic, visual interactions, and the audio system to support real-time feedback and dynamic music generation.

Vision-Parameter-Based Generative Audio System Designer at Self-initiated project

March 1, 2025 - Present

Developed a generative audio system in Max/MSP using a 4×4 grid structure for visual–audio mapping. Mapped HSL color parameters to oscillator pitch, amplitude, and timbre for real-time synthesis control. Composed a 7.5-minute electronic piece to validate the system in a musical context.

Instrument Recognition System (Audio Machine Learning) Developer at Self-initiated / IRMAS Project

April 1, 2025 - May 1, 2025

Built a data pipeline for the IRMAS dataset with MUSAN noise injection across multiple SNR levels in Python and TensorFlow, enabling batch noise injection, label management, and data organization to generate datasets. Designed data augmentation strategies across three distinct noise intensity levels to improve model robustness under noisy conditions. Supported the training requirements of multiple model architectures (TCN, CRNN+Attention, Transformer).

Lead Sound Designer (Project-based) at Even Power Studio

March 1, 2020 - Present

Responsible for comprehensive sound design and audio implementation for the studio's productions; led the musical composition, sound effects design, and live audio system management for numerous original stage plays and children's theater projects.
