An avid computer scientist, lifelong learner, and passionate educator, Thomas is a core contributor to WaveMakers' operations. With a proven track record in software development and computer science education, he is excited to empower future computer scientists and engineers. He enjoys computer programming, watching documentaries, and expanding his home network.
Leo Li
Program Director
Leo is an essential part of the WaveMakers' project designs and has pursued his passion for engineering through a range of hands-on projects—from building a shoebox arcade game to reverse-engineering a dip coater. Outside the workshop, he plays tuba for fun and performs bassoon with the NJ Symphony Youth Orchestra. In his free time, he also enjoys fishing and playing basketball.
