Worked alongside Dr. Ratnasingham Tharmarasa and his team into developing an optimization interface for his research into multi-sensor, multi-target environment resource management. During my time, I implemented and provided input on the use of different heuristic algorithms such as genetic algorithms or gradient descent, while also properly documenting robust interface functions to ensure simplicity while also providing powerful optimization tools. The interface has the ability to add any number of primitive data types and arrays, while also being able to check through multi-variable, non-linear constraints.

Conducted traffic surveys and counts in various locations across southern Ontario for information regarding traffic density, peak times and practicality of traffic elements (i.e. traffic lights, roundabouts, etc.). I worked independently and would have to submit organized reports in a timely manner to my supervisors.

St. Catharines, Ontario

Created and published a physics lab experiment for undergraduate students, under the supervision of Dr. Ed Sternin, involving energy-dispersive X-ray spectrometry with solid-state detectors. Independent testing of various composite samples was also done to ensure proper spectrometer functionality.
