Tallahassee, FL

Feb '24 Present

Tallahassee, FL

• Investigated and performed analysis for the development of an electromechanical immersion and interactive(haptic) telerobotic device Through SolidWorks simulations and dynamic analysis, determined where force sensors should be placed on the human-interactive component of the device, called a 'cobot'

•

Jun '23 Aug '23

Merritt Island, FL

Created a configurable dashboard for data streaming to stream live data for users in a customizable fashion using the Plotly Dash library within a 10 week timespan

•

Designed a haptic feedback glove (immersive simulation device) to be used for VR security training, taking into account movement restriction, touch simulation, and ergonomic support with the first iteration being a 3D-printed proof-of-concept

•

May '22 May '22

Atlanta, GA

Conducted research on interactions of magnetic fields and high-temperature superconductors in a phenomenon called flux pinning, showing how they could be integrated in robotics by making an electromagnetic track controlled using an Arduino MEGA

•

Demonstrated that current switching between electromagnets can dictate movement of superconductor, but found that heat transfer from the magnets cut the flux pinning time short

•

Jan '25 Present

Tallahassee, FL

• In active efforts of reviving the organization, obtaining funding, building connections, and gaining traction through social and educational activities Host and direct technical development workshops, coordinate outreach events and collaboration with other organizations, plan community service, reach out for club sponsorship, and plan for future involvement in robotics competitions

•

May '24 Present

Tallahassee, FL

• Set up network meetings with company professionals to help students learn about new opportunities

• Host workshops to help with professional development (career fair, resumes, etc.)and aid in A Walk for Education, Mar '23 Present

Tallahassee, FL

• Attended seminars and meetings to give input on how effective mentorship is in engineering education
