About Me
I am a dual Mechatronic Systems Engineering and Computer Science student at Western University, driven by a lifelong passion for aerospace, robotics, and autonomous systems. Combining six years of operational discipline as a Canadian Armed Forces veteran with hands-on technical leadership, such as directing mechanical design for Western Aero Design and engineering virtual hardware-in-the-loop simulation pipelines. I specialize in bridging the gap between physical hardware and intelligent software. I thrive on first-principles problem-solving and building resilient, real-world systems.
Projects & Experience
This site serves as a portfolio to showcase more in-depth information about personal projects, engineering competitions as well as some particularly interesting class projects. Some projects may still be ongoing.
SAE Aero Design
SAE Aero Design challenges a group of students to design various aircraft on a yearly basis and fly them over a weekend competition. Scoring is made up of three stages. Design Report, Presentation, and Mission.
vHIL Embedded Simulation with Physically Accurate Digital Twin
Through Western Universities undergraduate summer research internship I worked with the Applied Robotics Lab at Western to develop a virtual hardware-in-the-loop simulation of a 5 degree-of-freedom robotic arm. This platform aimed to serve has a fast and safe way to develop the software of the arm.

ASL Detection Through Machine Vision
As part of an introductory course to machine learning, we were challenged to create a machine learning model to solve a real-world problem. I decided to develop a computer vision model capable of detecting the numbers 0-9 in American sign language (ASL) with the idea that it could be expanded to the entire ASL dictionary with further development.
