◦ Instructed and graded students in a senior-level feedback control systems lab using MATLAB/Simulink assignments◦ Identified the need for, and created, an affordable proposal to replace expensive and aging commercially made lab equipment for a fraction of its $5000 maintenance budget

◦ Lead mechanical design to invent, rapid prototype, and produce smart athletic devices◦ Involved in all phases of development ranging from component design, sensor integration, mechanical specifications and fabrication, to data acquisition, formulating testing methods, and troubleshooting◦ Independently devised and created a prototype for less than $200 that tracks the rotation of a log freely floating in water◦ Modeled and analyzed prototypes using SolidWorks and MATLAB◦ Created real-time code with Arduino to collect and store signal data

◦ Independently developed lab projects to provide the basis for an upper division UC Berkeley controls course◦ Designed, built, modeled, identified, and controlled small robotic systems using Lego-EV3, Simulink, and ROBOTC◦ Conducted data analysis and wrote software algorithms to identify and control quantized and discretized systems

◦ Independently conducted requirements engineering to ideate and define the architecture for a module conversion kit that modified an annular flow control valve for inline functionality ◦ Led technical and design reviews with cross functional teams ◦ Independently performed concept identification and architecture exploration using Creo PTC◦ Produced detailed analysis using material behavior calculations to verify designs◦ Suggested modifications to a choke that resulted in estimated savings of $1000 per unit ◦ Identified a loading scenario that was previously unaccounted for across the company’s portfolio of valves
