Skills and interests

Embedded systems and real-time firmware, PCB design, vehicle communications, battery and power systems, and hardware/firmware integration.

My projects

Projects that helped me build my skills.

Five projects spanning power electronics, embedded controls, hardware design, energy systems, and system integration.

PAL-K Dynamics · Power Electronics

Three-Phase Vienna Rectifier & Digital PFC Control

I worked on TI C2000 reference firmware, PWM-based digital control, and preliminary testing on a Vienna Rectifier evaluation platform.

TIDM-1000TI C2000PWMPFC
Independent PCB & Embedded Systems Project

Peripheral Testing Board

I designed a reusable ESP32-S3 board to make CAN, SPI, I²C, and UART testing more repeatable before integrating those interfaces into larger systems.

Embedded Systems Internship · June 2025 – January 2026

PAL-K Electric Truck Controls

I developed C/C++ real-time control software using RTOS tasks, CAN communications, and operating-state logic, alongside controller integration and lab testing.

Other experience

Stereo Class-D Amplifier: I designed an LC noise filter before the differential-pair signal entered a summing amplifier and the feedback/correction loop.

Tutoring: I have helped students with ECE 231 and ECE 271, and with Physics I–III, including circuit analysis and other foundational topics.

More about me

When I say I love to sing, I mean it.

Engineering is what I build. Music and hiking are important parts of who I am.
