B.S. and M.S. at Carnegie Mellon.
Available for full-time roles after May 2027.
The capacitors start at a match. Detune to raise reflection; Auto-tune runs coordinate descent back.
ESP32-S3 smart display in a custom 3D-printed Kirby enclosure, built as a standalone desktop companion with touch UI, weather, alarms, timers, minigame screens, Wi-Fi, and I2S audio.
Pure analog LED chaser on a custom Kirby-shaped PCB with 555 timer sequencing, decade counters, exposed HASL art, and coin-cell auto-shutoff.
Improved EV power delivery at Ford, deployed automated RF matching at Hacker Fab, taught register-level embedded systems, and built independent devices where the enclosure, PCB, and interface have to work together.
Ford Motor Company On eDrive Units Diagnostics, resolved a 5.8 V control-unit drop from heat and undersized wiring, then specified upgraded gauges and routing. Isolated a Mach-E/E-Transit park-system ratcheting fault from warranty teardowns, presented an 8D, and wrote EDU service procedures that validated modular eMotor repair over full-unit replacements.
CMU Hacker Fab Built an open-source automated RF matcher for $636 (80%+ below commercial units) that holds ~1.2 VSWR at 95–100 W for 60+ minute depositions, using real-time coordinate descent on a Teensy 4.1 and a KiCad control PCB whose SWR and protection paths were checked in ngspice so ADC inputs stay below 3.3 V.
Carnegie Mellon University Manage 10 TAs and mentor 60+ students debugging custom preemptive RTOS kernels—PendSV context-switch faults, RMS bugs, and HLP priority inversion—using GDB and OpenOCD over JTAG. Guide STM32 firmware (MMIO, interrupt-driven serial, PWM) and review student 2-layer PCBs through PID motor tuning and sensor-actuator bring-up.
