I'm an Electrical and Computer Engineering student interested in building systems that connect hardware, software, and real-world use. My main interests include RF communications, embedded systems, medical devices, and rugged field technology.

Through projects like a UAV-mounted radio repeater for disaster response communications, I've become especially interested in engineering that has to work outside ideal conditions and under difficult constraints. I enjoy the challenge of designing systems that are not only technically sound, but also practical, reliable, and useful to the people depending on them.
