• Designed and manufactured a linear transverse flux motor module that produced levitation, thrust and passive guidance as a scalable feasibility prototype for Hyperloop propulsion. (SOLIDWORKS)
• Completely restored and created documentation for the team's coil-winding machine while using interrupts to run an encoder and stepper motor simultaneously increasing the machine's accuracy. (C++, Arduino)
• Incorporated sensors and created standardized flight path scripts for a programmable motor controller to sync electromagnetic simulations with experimental data for linear induction motors. (MicroBasic, Excel)

• Utilized the ETAS software suite to design and complete calibration and experiments over CAN and XCP protocol for both the vehicle ECM and other electronic modules, to troubleshoot and resolve software bugs. (INCA, MDA)
• Leveraged CADET software to calibrate the behaviour of electronic actuators during different driving modes, while also creating the.bin flash containers from calibration file types.S19 and.ecu. (CAN, Calibration)
• Used PowerVision toolkit to flash and calibrate the audio output functionality of the new user interface, to ensure the output voltage was within an acceptable range and that the automatic volume adjustment worked..
• Comprehended complicated Simulink drawings to troubleshoot errors and identify calibration mistakes.
• Created spreadsheets for software validation testing, tracking task progress and calculators to simulate signal outputs based on calibration changes, allowing me to complete 30% more tasks than previous interns. (Excel)

• Working as a member of the Materials Interface Foundry under the supervision of Prof. Yimin Wu and Lei Wang.

Regina, Saskatchewan, Canada

• Leveraged CAD and FEA to successfully design vessel skids that wouldn’t fail under load to reduce the time and cost associated with outsourcing a structural engineer. (Inventor, Nastran)
• Managed large BOMs with Excel to streamline the process of ordering components which saved costs by minimizing the time the company engineers spent sourcing quotes. (Inventor, Excel)
• Created detailed structural, weld, laser cut, waterjet, layout, wiring, machining and assembly drawings using CAD and GD&T that clearly conveyed design intentions to machine technicians. (AutoCAD, Inventor)
