As a project advisor for the Invention Corps, I helped the team develop two core products for the Ocean Non-Profit, SEABIN. I focused on developing their Physical Exhibit, generating the design and construction of the exhibit. My roles included:- Helped oversee the development of the Exhibition, in conjunction with Project Leads, ensuring alignment with SEABIN's goals and objectives.- Designed an interactive exhibit featuring real-time data and interactive displays to educate visitors about Microplastic Pollution- Managed the construction process, collaborating with graphic designers, engineers, and fabricators on the team- Incorporated recent studies and statistics on the precedent for microplastics and plastic pollution, with data and pollution collected by SEABIN devices.

- Led development of key physical features for Raise Robotics main construction prototype. Started with basic research and CAD to develop essential material feeders for the prototype, first realized in PLA and then iterated to laser-cutting for assembly- Conducted essential user research on development of these features, to ensure maximum usability and a focus on ergonomics, keeping in mind the main users being construction workers. Communicated directly with users/clients to understand needs and benefit opportunities.

• Worked with the organization Desi Discourse who aims at facilitating difficult conversations about Race and Racism in South Asian households• Managed two core workstreams to optimize the user interface of the website as well as develop a compressed version of the core Discussion Guide called the Pocket Guide. Both focused on improving accessibility and ease of use to resources, live experiences and other information• Conducting multiple rounds of User Testing and prototyping to develop both core deliverables, focusing on ideating the user experience and conducing safe interviews on potentially traumatizing topics

- Helped iterative development of a highly impactful SaaS platform for Sustainable Building Controls at Johnson Controls Inc., resulting in a increase in building health scores and improvement in employee productivity- Conducted a comprehensive SWOT analysis of key competitors in the Healthy Buildings Space, identifying market gaps and opportunities that led to a 20% increase in market share for our platform.- Researched and evaluated potential partner companies, resulting in successful collaborations with three industry-leading vendors- Streamlined vendor documentation, reducing onboarding time and enhancing cross-team collaboration and efficiency.- Collaborated closely with UI/UX teams to conduct extensive user research. Worked directly with engineering leadership to develop and launch a robust backend engine, enabling real-time data analysis and personalized insights for building health optimization.

• Worked alongside Andrew Gillies (founder of Dash Robotics) in research and development of the prototype device for Root’s infield automatic agricultural sensors• Focused on modelling (Solidworks, Fusion 360), in-field practice testing (i.e. drop and vibrational testing, high-stress weather conditions). Extended to mass manufacturing implementing good manufacturing practice (GMP) servicing a greenfield industry, ensuring quality and reliability on greater manufacturing scales. • Worked on IoT infrastructure namely on Arduino prototyping, designed the data interface and GUI, and mass assembly of the components on in-field devices.

• Collaborated with "Groupsorce", a platform to better connect students to career-building opportunities, and was tasked with creating a pilot program for the organization. • Direct involvement in the design of the initial program as well as the mechanism for growth and scale of the platform. Key insights included developing models for ensuring students achieved learning goals and helping projects on the platform better achieve those learning goals
