I actively engaged with project mentors and other interns to test embedded sensors in wearable devices (i.e. smartwatches) to detect falls and near falls in Parkinson’s Disease patients. Our team explored machine learning algorithms to classify and distinguish falls/near-falls from actives of daily life.

I participated as an undergraduate researcher on the RadioHound project. I worked alongside Electrical Engineering graduate students to apply signal processing concepts and applied mathematics to properly scale the results from the Welch periodogram. I completed a max hold program to allow the GUI to see changes in frequency over time with high resolution. I presented at a poster session about my findings and contributions at the end. Please view my poster below!
