2015 – Present Participated in a research group to design an 8 bit RISC microprocessor utilizing VERILOG.

2014 – 2013 Thesis consisted in the design of an apparatus capable of detecting and recording the movements of a mountaineer. This data is useful to assess the ability of the climber, his applied strength, his stability, pulse, etc. This was accomplished by using two low power micro-controlled systems that register the accelerations of both wrists and store the data in a micro-SD card. Through USB, the user can access the data log in an Excel spreadsheet, and can automatically program the internal time of the wristbands. 2013 – 2013 Designed a module to communicate with an energy provider through Wi-Fi allowing the customer to obtain energy during off peak periods. The idea is to donate power to low income families during off peak hours. SKILLS
