Relevant Engineering Experience:

Senior Design - Convolution Reverb, Binghamton, NY Sep ‘14 – May ‘15

Collaborated with a team of multidisciplinary engineers to plan and build a guitar pedal that offers the user an array of acoustic environments to mimic a reverb effect

Designed analog circuitry using P-Spice capable of manipulating a balanced and unbalanced guitar signal using operational amplifier circuitry

Formulated a convolution algorithm in MATLAB using overlap add and overlap save to convolve guitar signal with an impulse response

Junior Design - Beacon Locating Robot, Binghamton, NY Feb ‘14 – May ‘14

Utilized signal processing and C programming to build an autonomous robot capable of sensing a light emitted by a beacon in order to maneuver towards the beacon and “capture” it

Designed and soldered PCB board designated for IR communication and light sensing systems

Low Battery Indicator, Binghamton, NY Sep ‘13 – Dec ‘13

Designed a low battery indicator, as on appliances, capable of detecting multiple voltage drops

Built a circuit that recognizes different voltage levels using LEDs and BJTs

Assembled circuit to detect a voltage drop from 8 to 6 volts, and 6 to 4 volts, each voltage drop indicated by a separate flashing LED for users recognition

Audio Signal Processing, Binghamton, NY Sep ‘13 – Dec ‘13

Developed an algorithm using MATLAB to create FIR, IIR, low pass, and high pass filters to process an audio signal

Applied different frequency level interferences to test and analyze various filters and their uses

Maze Solving Robot, Binghamton, NY Feb ’12 – May ‘12

Programmed a robot using C programming and an AVR Microcontroller to autonomously solve a maze

Utilized light sensors to control the movement of the robot by following black tape as the path of the maze

Keyboard Controlled Robot, Binghamton, NY Sep’11 – Dec ’11

Programmed a robot using Xilinx ISE to control a robot’s movement using the arrow keys on a keyboard

Used bit stream from arrow keys, computer logic, and bit manipulation to designate each arrow key for a different direction
