About

I am a second year Electrical & Computer Engineering and Computer Science student at OSU. Science has always been the subject that I could browse forums and videos about for hours, so I decided my career should be heavily involved with scientific applications. Signals and robotics have been my focus for most of my college studies so far, with the OSU Robotics Club being the place for me to get practical experience in engineering. I have helped design and produce PCBs for the motor-control system on the Mars Rover and I conducted tests on power failure issues on the rover. My most recent engineering challenge has been the design and construction of a Donkey Kong Music Box with my two teammates. I was in charge of the Arduino UNO and the signal processing side of the project, where I implemented a C++ program to run on the arduinoIDE that monitored the state of buttons, stored .wav files on a microSD card, played .wav files to the audio circuit, and utilized the Fast Fourier Transform algorithm to record windows of audio data and find the dominant frequency in each window. My main career goal is to become an astronaut for NASA and participate in missions centered around the establishment of The Gateway lunar space station, the exploration of the scientific and commercial benefits of lunar outposts, and the future efforts to send humanity to Mars. With this goal in mind, I aim to complete a Masters degree in either Electrical & Computer Engineering or Robotics. I am aiming to complete an internship in the summer of 2021 in the field of electrical engineering or software engineering.
