● Developed a cross-platform mobile application marketplace using React and React Native to connect excess construction materials with homeowners and DIYers, reducing consumer costs by 40% compared to retail giants like Home Depot.

● Pioneered an early-stage partnership with construction company E.F. San Juan, resulting in the rehoming of 20+ orders of excess materials and diverting 4000+ pounds of waste from landfills. UVSET Inc - CEO & Co-Founder August 2020 – May 2023

● Invented a patent-pending UV-C-based automated door handle sanitizer, organizing product design and engineering teams from concept through to prototyping.

● Secured $40,000 in seed funding with a $750,000 LOI for prototype development and presented research at the Advancing Healthcare Innovation Summit 2022, with findings published in the Digital Health Journal. Projects

Higher or Lower Game Digital Design October 2024-October 2024

● Developed a game using Quartus, FPGA, and SCOMP that generates random numbers and processes user input to provide real-time feedback on whether guesses were too high or too low through DE10 7-segment displays.

● Designed an interactive scoring system that tracked the number of attempts required to reach the correct guess, ensuring efficient gameplay and user engagement.

Torque Vectoring Georgia Tech Solar Racing September 2023 – May 2024

● Engineered a real-time torque vectoring algorithm using Arduino and C++. Leveraged IMU data to optimize vehicle handling and control. Improved vehicle performance metrics by 7-9%. WasteMAP Georgia Tech Create-X, Innovation to Prototype September 2023 – December 2023

● Designed and implemented an AI-integrated sensor for industrial dumpsters to optimize waste collection routes. Proven through a Python simulation to be roughly 20% faster than traditional, standardized Waste Management Routing.

● Assessed fill levels with an accuracy of 95% using camera-based image-detection technology and a Raspberry Pi system. Grocery Store Sanitization Apparatus DIscoverSTEM Innovation December 2019 – June 2020

● Invented and patented (US 11857687B2) UV-C sanitizing and price-scanning device for grocery store conveyor belts, addressing critical hygiene concerns during the checkout process.
