Bridging the Gap Between Hardware & Software
I am a Mechatronics Engineering student at McMaster University with hands-on experience in automotive safety systems, power distribution, and industrial automation. My passion lies in creating intelligent systems where mechanical precision meets embedded intelligence.
At Veoneer Canada Safety Systems, I led the design of advanced safety sensor fixtures for Tesla's CyberCab program and developed automation tools that achieved a 30x efficiency gain in report generation. I also drove a 42% reduction in production downtime through PLC reprogramming and comprehensive statistical analyses.
My experience spans from designing power distribution architectures for critical healthcare infrastructure to developing ergonomic assistive devices. I thrive at the intersection of real-time control systems, robotics, and embedded systems.
