I build and study systems where firmware, electronics, sensing, control, and real hardware meet. My favorite problems have constraints: latency, noise, mass, power, reliability, and the fun kind of debugging where an oscilloscope earns its place on the desk.
Selected highlights:
- World Champion - WCRC CanSat World Finals
- Best Communication System Award
- Presented research at GLEX 2025
- Autonomous rover platform with onboard sensing, mobility control, and field testing
- UAV propulsion health monitoring using embedded data acquisition and anomaly detection
- CanSat avionics and telemetry for flight computers, RF links, and payload data
- CubeSat and space-system architecture at subsystem level
- Embedded AI for small, power-aware autonomy problems
