Hello!
I'm Matthew Zhang, a Mechanical Engineering major at the University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign (UIUC). I'm interested in robotics and mechanical design, and this is a website I designed where I'll be showing off my work. Keep in mind that for now, this website is still very much in development.
