Experience
R&D Engineering Intern · Georg Fischer Piping Systems
- Running a dimensional-stability / cooling study on manufactured pipe to characterize shrinkage and production rate using Six Sigma and Design-of-Experiments methods.
- Collected and analyzed measurement data to characterize part behavior and inform process decisions.
Personal Shopper · Walmart
- Worked full time while completing an engineering degree; reliability, time management, and consistent execution under load.
Projects
WonkyBot · Autonomous Ball-Sorting Robot
- Led the electrical and software development of a fully autonomous robot: ROS 2 Jazzy with Nav2 navigation, Intel RealSense depth perception, and a Raspberry Pi 5 / Pico 2 differential-drive control system.
- Placed 3rd statewide and won Best Notebook at the Arkansas Space Grant Consortium; presented at the IEEE Student Showcase.
Randomizing Passcode · Ciphered Lock
- Designed an embedded "solve-for-it" cipher lock on a Raspberry Pi Pico: a randomizing passcode with 74HC595 LED hints, buzzer and RGB feedback, and a non-blocking state machine with lockout logic.
- Designed and ordered a custom PCB, moving the circuit from breadboard to a fabricated board.
Glitch MK1 / MK2 · Personal Robotics
- Built two generations of personal mobile robots (mecanum drive, hall-sensor motor control) as ongoing embedded and robotics R&D.
