Experience
Where I was and what I did
Wentworth Engineering Honors Society
Wetworth Institute of Technology
Inducted May of 2025 / Appointed as Officer July of 2025
I am the current Treasurer and Secretary of WEHS, a distinction given to engineering majors with strong academics and character.
Achieving this distinction in my junior year and quickly becoming an officer means my high-achieving academics and impactful work experience have been recognized.
As of this year, our chapter has been inspected by Tau Beta Pi officials under the district. Our goals are to prepare our society for further induction and make our efforts known.

Recognition was never the goal, but it is more than welcome.
Technical Support Engineer Intern
Harvard University Information Technology
January 2025 - April 2025
I returned to Harvard University's IT department to further my skills and broaden my network. In addition to my previous responsibilities, I focused on heading projects and helping guide new interns throughout the Spring.
Helping create new workflows within our office expanded our range of services, as well as my project management skills. Redrafting all of our workflow documentation was a collaborative and rewarding experience, as was presenting a workflow proposal to upper managment.
In addition, I got more experience with hardware, engaging in repairs such as RAM swaps, battery replacements, deep cleanings, and much more.

After the first 30 or so times...taking apart computers isn't that daunting.
IEEE Eta Kappa Nu
Wetworth Institute of Technology
Inducted August of 2024
Wentworth's Mu Mu chapter of IEEE-HKN is our honors society for electrical engineering and related majors. Students are inducted via invitation only to join the official HKN organization.
Similar to WEHS, the orgnization values high performance, strong character, and a dedication to the community. Community-based projects are held, allowing me to help contribute to the people around me in a meaningful way.
Having been inducted to both WEHS and HKN, I stand at a strong intersection highlighting my achievements and recognition by my peers.

IEEE encompasses everything I wish to be. This is just the beginning.
Technical Support Engineer Intern
Harvard University Information Technology
April 2024 - August 2024
During my first internship with Harvard University’s IT department, I supported users with software and hardware issues across campus.
Alongside service desk duties, I managed one of nine zones within Harvard College, handling printer upkeep, equipment deployments, and collaborative projects with adjacent teams.
This experience deepened my understanding of operating systems and hardware, strengthened my communication skills, and gave me firsthand insight into a real-world tech environment.

Maintenance took me to many locales, but some setups were...interesting to discover.
Projects
Some things I've put together
TetraPi HUB75 Implementation
C++ / Python | Raspberry Pi 5 | Direct Memory Access
June 2025 - Individual
A Work-In-Progress implementation of old-school Tetris using a 64x64 HUB75 LED matrix driven by a Raspberry Pi. This project posed a unique challenge, as Raspberry Pi 5 is still new and undocumented. By configuring a third-party library, high refresh rates and color depth are achievable.
This is a personal project, hence all the research, setup, and hardware acquiring were driven by my own curiosity and motivation to learn more. ALong the way, I've familiarized myself with Unix, Raspberry Pi hardware, and C++ command line compiling.

The classics aren't relegated to arcade machines
Frequency Divider Visualization
Verilog HDL | DE-10 FPGA | Signal Processing
June 2025 - Individual
A frequency divider circuit powered by a DE10-Lite FPGA using Verilog HDL. The design was tested using an electrical testbench, with a square wave input from a wave function generator and visualization via oscilloscope.
This project was part of ELEC7800: Embedded Systems, a graduate-level course I pursued early as part of my 4+1 master’s program at WIT. Through this course, I am gaining hands-on experience with logic synthesis, hardware verification, and VLSI fundamentals. I am grateful to the WIT faculty for enabling this advanced exposure.

Perhaps one of the most engaging and interesting labs so far.
Microcontroller Guessing Game
Embedded System | STM32 MCU | Hardware Interfacing
April 2024 - Group of 4
An STM32-powered guessing game where users can guess a sequence of 4 numbers. After every round, feedback for each number is provided.
This project was part of course ELEC2850 under WIT, which taught us the fundamentals of C and microcontrollers alike. Having incorporated GPIO control, interrupt handling, and HAL libraries, this project proved an early milestone in my engineering career.
My role was to review the contributions of group members (such as drivers for external components) and integrate them into the game logic. Reviewing pin diagrams, project requirements, and monitoring team progress were tasks I undertook.

A class project we went the extra mile for, and my first embedded system.
