Project Showcase
As I grow as a problem solver, so do the number of projects I am proud to showcase. I enjoy working on inter-disciplinary projects, leveraging my mechanical as well as electrical and software skills
Ball Bot - Self Balancing Robot
Student group (3) side project, funded by IEEE at UCLA
Designed, built, and tested a robot that can balance on a soccer ball
Universal Robot - Automatic Gluing/Testing System
Designed/Manufactured/Implemented a robotic system that glues a can and lid together and tests for an airtight seal; improved cycle time by 99.7%
Skills: Solidworks, PLC hardware, ladder logic code, system integration, rapid prototyping
OMRON Robot - Accurate pick-and-place Robotic System
Built/set-up robot foundational environment; built fully functioning system for next engineer
Skills: Initial system set-up, electronics box wiring/component selection, intricate fixture design, system design/planning, rapid prototyping
Baja SAE-Chassis Design / Analysis / Testing
As Chassis Lead designed off-road vehicle chassis, led first in-house manufacturing of frame
Skills: Solidworks, LS-DYNA, project management, tube bending/notching, welding, strain gages
UCLA Idea Hack - FlexOff
Created working product prototype, FlexOff, to make working out fun; 2nd place out of 70+ teams
Utilized EMG sensor to compare users' muscle activation to visualize a "tug-of-rope" style game
Skills: Solidworks, EMG sensor, gesture sensor, arduino, stepper motor, gantry system
General - Knowledge Documentation
A skill I have honed as chassis lead, allowing for all novel skills and experience to be passed on to the next generation of engineers, ensuring constant improvement and high efficiency
