I assisted on research projects such as the robust one-way sound transport along the edge of a topological surface and testing an acoustic metasurface. Through this position, I have built upon my skills with creating SolidWorks parts/assemblies, 3D printing, CNC machining, operating a laser cutter, mixing and applying epoxy, reviewing and editing scientific papers, and giving weekly presentations describing my work.

I assisted first year engineering students with learning to code in Python and MATLAB. My responsibilities included: - Helping students debug their code and interpret error messages to pinpoint problems in the code- Explain various concepts such as: defining a function, calling variables, plotting data, constructing recursive loops, print statements, conditional statements, boolean expressions, NumPy commands, relational and logical operators, creating a virtual drive and saving and accessing files from a virtual drive- Supervise students when working on data acquisition labs to make sure they are obtaining the correct results and saving their data in the proper place so students can access them at home and perform further analysis.- Grade student lab reports and return them with personalized feedback in a timely manner
