Projects
Welcome to my project portfolio, a professional showcase of my engineering work. Here, you'll find a range of projects that demonstrate my technical skills, from complex computational models to innovative software solutions. Each featured project is a testament to my dedication to engineering excellence and my pursuit of practical problem-solving.
Halloween 3D Printing Project
Student Engineer
For our 3D printing class project, we teamed up to bring Halloween dreams to life for local elementary students. Tasked with creating a unique costume, we focused on one student's wish to become Ironman. Leveraging Fusion 360 for design and Python for interactive light and sound effects, we dedicated countless hours in Swenson Hall to craft a one-of-a-kind Ironman costume. The result was a testament to our learning and hard work: a fully interactive Ironman suit that made our young friend's Halloween unforgettable.
Online Music Application
Student Engineer
During my time at Universidad Carlos III de Madrid, I engaged in a collaborative project with international peers to create a music application. This endeavor required us to harness our HTML and CSS skills for both design and functionality, resulting in an intuitive and visually appealing application that enhanced users' musical experiences. This project not only honed our technical abilities but also fostered a creative and multicultural team dynamic.
Computational Biology Research
Student Researcher
As an Undergraduate Research Associate, I focused on computational modeling of fluid dynamics in peristaltic circulatory systems, notably in tunicates. This study explored peristaltic hearts across varying circulatory resistances, employing opposing sine waves and sharp Gaussian peaks to assess heart tube flexibility's impact on flow rates and transport costs. Our findings indicated that increased resistivity reduced flow rates while flexibility improved them, offering insights into peristaltic pump efficiency in resistive systems. My role involved significant data analysis using Matlab and collaboration via GitHub, contributing to our presentation at the Society for Integrative and Comparative Biology (SICB).
Computational Biology Research
Student Researcher
In our avian flight performance project, we analyzed the evolutionary influence of bird wing structure using XFLR5 for simulation interpretation. Collaboration was key, facilitated through GitHub, allowing our team to work synergistically and track changes efficiently. Matlab played a crucial role, enabling us to perform detailed simulations and analyze the data to understand the flight mechanics better. This integrative approach combining GitHub's collaborative platform, Matlab's computational power, and XFLR5's detailed simulations provided us with comprehensive insights into avian flight evolution.
Neuroscience Student Research Project
Student Researcher
In a group effort for a neuroscience research project, we investigated the efficacy of 3D-printed learning aids versus traditional teaching methods. Our team designed an experiment with Chapman University students, using 3D-printed brain models to potentially enhance the educational experience. Students were split into two groups: one experienced a standard lecture while the other interacted with the 3D models. We assessed the impact through a brain anatomy exam, aiming to measure the immediate benefits of engaging with tactile learning tools.
Blockly Fitness Program
Student Engineer
The Fitness Program DSL project merges fitness with programming, allowing users to easily craft personalized workout routines through a visual drag-and-drop interface. It simplifies fitness planning for all skill levels by using visual blocks to represent exercises and their parameters, requiring sophisticated parsing to translate these into structured workout plans. This innovative approach demystifies programming concepts while making fitness more accessible and customizable.
Credit Card Database Management
Student Engineer
We developed a financial management app to help users track budgets and manage credit cards in one place. It allows for viewing financial statements, setting budgets, and customizing spending categories. With functionalities to manage transactions and a user-friendly interface designed in HTML and CSS, backed by Python and MySQL, our app aims to simplify financial oversight for users.
NFT Summer Project
Engineer
I created a unique NFT collection featuring 100 randomly generated characters, each with distinct attributes. This digital art project combines creativity and blockchain technology, allowing for the collection and trading of exclusive, one-of-a-kind characters with various features.
