I am a passionate Electrical and Computer Engineering graduate from the University of Windsor, with a focus on Power Electronics and Controls for Electric Vehicles (EVs). Currently pursuing my MASc under the mentorship of Dr. Caniggia Viana at the renowned CHARGE Lab, I am dedicated to advancing the next generation of EV technologies.My research primarily focuses on innovative drivetrain solutions that have the potential to revolutionize the EV industry. In collaboration with MAGNA, I am involved in the development and testing of the modular drivetrains, which do not rely on the traditional high-voltage DC link found in conventional EV drives. Key achievements:⚡ Innovative Power Transfer Solution: Developed a novel method for powering auxiliary loads (12V, 48V systems and/or High voltage secondary motor or HVAC) in modular EV drivetrains without dedicated auxiliary power hardware. The approach is to use zero sequence sub circuit of the drivetrain and hence eliminates the need for costly isolated DC-DC converters and HV DC links, significantly improving cost, weight, and efficiency.⚡ Patent : Filed an industry patent in collaboration with Magna for my discovery.⚡ Research Publications: Authored and presented my work at the prestigious IEEE PEDES conference, with plans for a follow-up journal paper.⚡ Prototyping and Testing: Led a team to successfully build and demonstrate a low-voltage modular drivetrain prototype with expanded functionalities, including auxiliary power, FOC-controlled motor operation, and secondary motor capabilities. My hands-on experience with power electronics, MATLAB, RT simulators (OPAL-RT), and Arduino programming has allowed me to develop expertise in testing, control algorithms, and system optimization. In addition, I have a solid foundation in mathematics and physics, which helps me solve complex engineering problems.As an innovative problem solver, I am eager to continue learning and contributing to the world of sustainable energy and electric vehicles.
