• Taught students classic and modern controls and dynamics theory
• Designed, led and updated lab experiments

• Researched and implemented visual odometry and object detection algorithms using camera and sonar point cloud data

• Managed 60 student team through testing of a fully Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) using a range of sensors and actuators for mission planning

• Led the mechanical section through design and manufacturing of a robust mechanical system, the basis of which was used for multiple years
• Provided design criteria and guidance to ensure robustness and success of AUV design

Brampton, Ontario

• Derived and simulated a novel optimal trajectory planner based on optimal control theory
• Developed an understanding of obstacle navigation of a swarm which uses a distributed control scheme

Montreal, Quebec

• Defined a design criteria for a novel combustor ignition method by deriving an air flow relationship through the modelling of combustor recirculation zones
• Used a full factorial design of experiments to perform a statistical analysis proving the accuracy of a model for a new combustor design
• Interpolated finite non-linear results and analysed chemical reaction pathways to provide a detailed report on the effect of combustor design changes to emissions

Montreal, Quebec

• Design, modelling and technical drawings of components, assemblies and installations for the visual area and platform of the 3000 series flight simulators
• Redesign of the cooling system for the 5000 series simulator’s visual area
• Collaboration with manufacturing to fix functional design errors and resolve problem reports

Brampton, Ontario

• Integrated, debugged and verified the multi-domain contact dynamic models for a Next Generation Canadarm
• Integrated a mission simulator used for modeling satellite dynamics and physics
• Simulated multi-satellite docking

Master’S Degree, Mechanical Engineering

Thesis: Attitude Estimation for Collision Recovery of a Quadcopter Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV). • Performed an extensive survey of known.
