I have some hands-on work experience and I'm actively developing the skills and portfolio to launch my career.

Work samples

A collection of projects and contributions that show the skills I'm developing and the kinds of problems I enjoy solving.

  • Beach-Cleaning Microplastic Filtration System - Senior Design
    Beach-Cleaning Microplastic Filtration System - Senior Design

    Designed and integrated a mechanical filtration subsystem using SolidWorks, including a vibrating mesh, motor mount, collection tray, and spring-isolation system. Progressed the system from concept and 3D CAD through prototype fabrication, aluminum construction, assembly, and verification testing. Performed engineering calculations and evaluated structural, vibration, material, and performance requirements against an 80% capture-efficiency target. Documented test results, identified performance gaps, and supported iterative design changes to improve system behavior.

  • Four-Sensor Vehicle Proximity Warning System
    Four-Sensor Vehicle Proximity Warning System

    Designed, assembled, programmed, and tested an Arduino-based system integrating four ultrasonic sensors, digital I/O, LEDs, and buzzer alerts. Diagnosed sensor behavior, refined control logic, and verified system response through repeated functional testing.
