About me

I am a Mechatronics Engineering student at the University of Waterloo with experience in software development, robotics, and engineering design. 

During the current study semester, I am an undergraduate research assistant for the Interactive Robotics Lab at Waterloo University. My work here focuses on using ROS2 to write control software for a robot arm with 7 Degrees of Freedom, as well as custom hardware creation. 

Most recently, during my internships at Schneider Electric in France, I created automation tools that streamlined workflows and were adopted by teams internationally.

This portfolio highlights my projects from industry, student design teams, and extracurriculars that showcase my skills in design, coding, and prototyping.
