I am an Aeronautics and Astronautics Engineering Master's student at Stanford University seeking an internship for the Summer of 2023. My academic, extracurricular, and professional engineering endeavors have provided me with a systems-level understanding of aircraft and spacecraft, which will enable me to valuably contribute to a professional team in the Aerospace industry.
02 PORTFOLIO
MY LATEST WORK. SEE MORE >
03 Experience
Jan. 2021 - Present
Department of Aerospace Engineering
Undergraduate Research Assistant
• Under the guidance of Dr. Xiaofeng Liu, worked with a small group of students to do a thermodynamic analysis of the SDSU Subsonic Wind Tunnel
• The objective of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of the wind tunnel’s current cooling system and outline the requirements for an upgraded system that will allow the tunnel to reach thermodynamic equilibrium at lower temperatures
• Co-authored a paper that was accepted for presentation at the 2022 AIAA SciTech Forum and published online in the conference proceedings
June 2022 - Aug. 2022
AEye, Inc.
Perception Engineering Intern
• Worked under the guidance of the Chief Scientist of AEye, developing point cloud object detection algorithms in MATLAB
• Developed a point cloud object detection algorithm using a point set registration method known as coherent point drift
• Developed a point cloud object detection algorithm using a template matching-based approach, which involved the creation of an occupancy grid from point cloud data and use of cross correlation
• Spearheaded the use of MATLAB’s LiDAR Toolbox for object detection and classification in AEye’s Perception Department
2018 - Present
SDSU Rocket Project
Solids Teams Project Manager
• Collaborating with professional engineers, professors in the engineering department, graduate students, and undergraduate students to effectively design, fabricate, and test a multi-stage rocket that will reach the Karman line
• Managed a team of 20+ undergraduate students of all disciplines on the Solids Team. This included organizing weekly general bodying meetings, assigning tasks, overseeing projects, acclimating members to various team software, and acquiring funding/sponsors for the team
• Currently developing the guidance, navigation, and control (GNC) system for an actively stabilized rocket using a Pixhawk Hex Cube Orange flight controller and Simulink as the modeling and simulation environment
• Led a team of 3 engineers in designing a CAD model of a Gaseous-Oxygen/Acrylic Hybrid Rocket Motor
2018 - Present
SDSU Mechatronics
Mechanical and Software Team Member
• Collaborating with Software and Electrical Team's to assist the design of an autonomous underwater vehicle that will compete in the International Robo-Sub Competition
• Used Python’s OpenCV library in conjunction with the PyCharm development environment to create a head’s up display (HUD) that tracks and places a crosshair over objects of a specified color, and gives the user directions needed to move the object to the center of the screen
• Led and facilitated the design, fabrication, and testing of different mechanical features of the vehicle such as a motor mounts, underwater projectiles, and O-ring grooves (increased dynamic stability of underwater projectiles by 45%)
• Attended biweekly general body meetings and weekly Mechanical Team meetings to discuss competition updates, design changes, design and fabrication progress, deadlines, new projects, and outreach events
Sept. 2021 - Present
Department of Aerospace Engineeering
Undergraduate Research Assistant
• Under the supervision of Dr. Ahmad Bani Younes, currently working with a small group of students to design, assemble, and autonomously control a drone
• The dynamic model of the drone, controller tuning, computer vision algorithms, and simulation is being done in PX4, MATLAB, and Simulink
