Use the design control process to design and develop medical implantable devices and the specified instrumentation. Write verification and validation protocols and perform the subsequent testing on devices and instruments. Collect and present data from the testing performed in written reports. Collaborate with manufacturing partners to optimize current and new designs with respect to cost-effectiveness and future deadlines. Meet with surgeons to discuss user needs, receive feedback on current and future designs, and perform validation surveys on the devices and instruments. Design and 3D print test fixtures where needed for feasibility testing along with 3D printing prototypes of potential devices and instruments.

Worked on a three-person team to design and build a 3-D printed assistive exoskeleton hand device. Developed multiple finger and wrist designs using SolidWorks. Hardwired the circuit board containing the Arduino Uno and linear actuators to be used to power the movement of the fingers. Helped develop a validation protocol to validate the functionality of the device. Co-authored a four-page abstract which was accepted to the 38th Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society.
