The ECE program at Oregon State University has educated me in skills essential to confidently starting a career at any engineering workplace relevant to my areas of interest. I have a functional understanding of the following knowledge areas: linear electrical circuits, digital logic, algorithms, object-oriented code, hardware description languages, assembly code, transmission line effects, non-linear circuit elements (transistors), computer architecture, operating systems, signal and LTI system analysis, wireless networking, Newtonian physics, and the essential mathematical fields underlying those areas. My specific area of interest is in working with systems having a digital core- such as a processor or microcontroller -including work with both hardware and software. Beyond technical experience, I have had multiple project cycle experiences including education on principles of projects and team dynamics. My curriculum has included a significant amount of writing, education in good technical writing practices, and independent research to resolve problems with assignments.
A collaborative project done with three other people in which audio was recorded using a microphone feeding its output to an op-amp IC, its frequency responses were computed using an arduino sketch containing a public FFT libra...
A project done with three other people over the course of three months (one term), in which an Intel FPGA board was intended to allow a music box equipped with a microphone, sound chip, speaker, interface buttons, and audio vis...
The low cost digital sampling device is an oscilloscope which interfaces with a separate workstation to bring high cost features to a low cost device. By offloading typically hardware driven or processor calculations to existin...
A collaborative project done with two other people in which a DC motor was converted into a servomotor by implementing a virtual PID control loop using feedback potentiometers and an arduino uno. The servomotor was tested with ...
