• Expedited new project development time with Dual Phase Adaptive Equalizer legacy code. o Parsed unfamiliar, existing C code, adapting it for current needs, and updating syntax to match modern standards. o Utilized C++.
• Collaborated with systems engineers and RTL designers to develop and debug C++ models of DSPhardware, including an oFEC interleaver/deinterleaver pair and wrappers to ensure correct loading ofdata into oFEC encoder and.
• Wrote Python scripts that generated C++ files to be compiled into PV tests. o Implemented the use of Jinja templates allowing test settings to be easily updated and automated, eliminating the need for manual edits of.
• Visualized and interpreted performance verification (PV) data through the development of Python scripts based on Matplotlib libraries. o Optimized gains and test settings to maximize PV performance for metrics such as.
• Documented configuration and bring-up information for use by firmware engineers, aiding in embedded development and reducing time to market.

• Automated Makefile generation for Simulink generated C code using Python
• Used C++ and SystemC to implement transaction-level modeling of communication hardware systems designed in RTL
• Debugged C++ models in a design verification (DV) environment using Simvision to compare simulation results against SystemVerilog RTL code
• Helped to develop a performance verification (PV) environment, running the above-mentioned C++ models with Python-generated tests to ensure design performance requirements were met

Research Assistant in an Electronics lab where I applied my computer engineering skills to assist in developing data logging and handling solutions wherever they were be needed. Additionally, I worked to design and develop a custom PCB using Altium Designer.

Oxford, Ohio, United States

• The Supplemental Instruction (SI) program is designed to assist students in historically difficult classes.
• Plan and facilitate weekly SI sessions to enhance understanding of course material (Calculus I)
• Combine use of learning theory and my prior class experience to predict and counter course difficulties
• Communication and interpersonal skills utilized constantly as I work through issues with students

Mentor, Ohio, United States
