Hello there! My name is Kevin and I was born and raised on O‘ahu, Hawai‘i. I grew up in the most intense, yet loveable,
immigrant family. I attended Punahou School (yea, go buff 'n blue!) and am proud to have attended
Case Western Reserve University in the quaint embrace of the American Midwest. There, I received my B.S. in Engineering Physics
and B.A. in Music, with a concentration in Piano and Harpsichord studies. Upon graduating, I did a 180º on my promise to head west,
and went east instead to start my M.S./Ph.D. Electrical Engineering studies at Columbia University. And here I am now, completing year 6 (out of 6) in my
M.S./Ph.D. program with the coolest group of researchers in nanoscience, led by nano-optics expert P. James Schuck.
Currently, I spend 3/4 of my time in New York, NY, the other 1/4 at Los Alamos National Laboratory in Albuquerque, NM, and whatever possible time I have left
back at home.
