Arthur Chuang
I am a mechanical engineer by training. Upon completion of a one-year co-op program during my master's study at IngMar Medical, a company specializing in design of respiratory simulators, I had developed a strong interest in programmable devices. Solving problems and bringing innovative solutions to meet end users' needs are my main goals as an engineer. My passion for engineering grows as I see products with my design effort become visible in the market.
