About Me

I am a Sophomore at the New Jersey Insitute of Technology Albert Dorman's Honors College, majoring in a B.S. of Electrical Engineering, with a minor in Drones & Robotics. I am passionate and driven electrical engineer with a strong foundation in digital logic, circuit design, mechatronics, and programming. My goal is to benefit society by innovating and/or improving solutions. I thrive in collaborative environments and am always eager to learn new skills.

My Experiences

VEX
January 2026 - Present

4-Bit Multi-Function Binary Arithmetic & Representation Unit

After Taking ECE251 (Digital Design) in Fall 2025, I decided to apply my skills.

Currently designing and simulating a complex digital logic circuit in NI Multisim capable of performing integer arithmetic and multiple number representations. Integrating sequential logic for data storage and combinational logic to process and display Unsigned, 1’s Complement, 2’s Complement, and Arithmetic Sum/Difference outputs via a user-controlled interface. Implementing arithmetic via the 74LS181. Designed a custom shift register for user inputs.

NJIT Vex U Team

Project Manager of the NJIT VEX U Team. I ensure, assign, and lead our team completes tasks on time. I have been directly involved with designing mechanical parts of the robot (mounts, intake, game piece manipulators etc.) I also design the electronics & pneumatic systems for the robots. I have been tasked with strategy, game analysis, along with researching our competitors and understanding their patterns to get an upperhand on them. Worked on our documentation that defines our engineering design process throughout the year.

Gestured-Controlled Halloween Game

For my ENGR-330 (Microcontrollers & IoT) Midterm, I designed the CAD, soldered a custom daughter board, and programmed a "Wand and Cauldron" that dispenses candy if you correctly follow a set of randomly generated gestures -- all within 4 days.

STEM Director - Winnebago Scout Reservation

Trained my personnel to teach various STEM related merit badges. Produced 11 professional lesson plans with hands-on learning activities and educated 100+ scouts in Electricity, Electronics, Energy, Engineering, Space Exploration, Robotics, Radio, Drones, 3D Printing, Drafting, and Composite Materials subjects. Researched on each topic to ensure I can answer any questions asked. Taught KiCAD (Electronics CAD) apart of the Drafting MB.

3D Printed HEPA Fan

At the beginning of summer, I designed the Schematics and CAD of my own HEPA Filter fan for soldering projects over the summer. I decided to do this instead of buying a normal Filter, as I wanted to use the USB Type-C connection.

Ri3D
October 2024 - June 2025

Robot in 3 Days

Led 10 FRC alumni at NJIT to host a mentorship event to have a the 3 month long FRC season shortened to 3 days as a way to teach high school students how to approach the new challenge. Assembled the electrical board of the robot. We unfortunately encounters issues with inventory and were unable to finish the robot last year, however the flaws we experienced help us to coordinate a more cohesive event in January 2026. Designed the livestream UI and created short recaps throughout the event.

Elevator
November 2024 - Feburary 2025

ElevATE - Weight Sensing Elevator

Originally utilizing a force load sensor, later using OpenCV, my team and I designed (Elevator CAD & Buttons CAD) a Weight Sensing Elevator to optimize the time current elevator systems took, based on the amount of people on the elevator. Selected as 1 of 60 projects to be presented at the NJIT FYS Engineering Showcase.
