• Designed and manufactured a miniature multi-contrast microscope for photometric stereo imaging.• Designed a pneumatically powered hybrid soft prosthetic finger with an inner skeleton; it was coupled with custom piezoresistive pressure sensors for texture discrimination palpation tests.• Developed device to streamline soft prosthetic finger manufacturing.

• Organized and designed test protocols to determine validity of motion capture glove usage in xEMU spacesuits.• Conducted human trials where StretchSense gloves were used within gloveboxes to generate motion capture data of hand movements, mimicking those within spacesuits.• Applied algorithms in MATLAB to process, visualize, and statistically analyze data.

• Increased verification and validation process efficiency by reducing quality engineering protocol documents by 80% through consolidation efforts. • Identified unnecessary and repeated protocols with custom Python scripts.

• Led prototyping team in development and manufacturing of a novel brain retraction device using Creo CAD software to model the device and simulate its function.• Designed and conducted benchtop trials that featured a custom sensor layout controlled via Arduino; applied denoising filters and visualized data.• Built and managed relationships with over 40 consultants, manufacturers, and healthcare professionals.

• Conducted current and voltage characterizations on prosthetic devices with oscilloscopes, current clamps, and function generators.• Visualized device data in Excel and wrote verification documentation for each device.• Wrote python scripts to unlock prosthetic device control via serial and CANBUS communication.

• Assembled over 200 essential household item kits each week for three distribution sites in Baltimore County.• Distributed non-perishable food, produce, and other items each Friday to families living with food insecurity in Baltimore County.

• Created an efficient method to calibrate the DaVinci robot’s set-up joints and translational movement.• Tested different heat sink solutions for robot's electrical boxes.• Published work online to a public wiki for the DVRK community.
