Soon

Topic:

Ways to build a winning MocroMouse

       We are honored to welcome Soon Wan as our keynote speaker today. Soon graduated as the top student from Ngee Ann Polytechnic in Singapore with the highest merit diploma in Electronic and Computing Engineering. He further distinguished himself by graduating Summa Cum Laude in Electrical Engineering from Merrimack College in 2000, where he was also recognized as the top graduate student.

 

Biography:

       Soon has been celebrated as a technology whiz kid, featured in Mass High Tech magazine in 1999. His academic achievements earned him prestigious accolades such as the Merrimack President's Scholar and the Brian S. Lowery, O.S.A. Award.

       Currently, Soon serves as a Principal Design Engineer in the Research and Development Engineering group at VICOR Corporation in Andover, MA, where he leads a team focused on designing high power density DC/DC power converters utilizing innovative technologies and patented topologies.

       Soon's contributions extend beyond his professional work; he has been an influential leader within the IEEE community. As the 2007-08 MGA GOLD Committee Chair and founder of the Boston GOLD Affinity Group, he has played a vital role in enhancing the IEEE GOLD program, receiving numerous accolades for his dedication and leadership.

       Please join me in welcoming Soon Wan to share his insights into the mechanics, algorithms, and creative strategies behind successful MicroMouse designs.
