Programming Languages

  • 8 Years of Experience:

    • Presidential Doggy Door Detection - Utilized transfer learning from VGG-16 and data augmentation techniques in PyTorch to identify whether an animal was the presidential dog “Bo” with > 97% accuracy.

    • Iris Classification System - Utilized a linear regression model to classify Iris flowers with > 93% accuracy.

    • Sea Mine Detection System - Utilized a linear regression model to classify sonar returns as either a rock or a sea mine with > 76% accuracy.

    • Python Flight Data Analysis - Detailed analysis of a 3.6M row dataset utilizing pandas, matplotlib, and numpy.

  • 6 Years of Experience:

    • Secure Login and Registration System utilizing Argon2ID.

    • Scratch-built Neural Network to act as a XOR operator with > 97% accuracy.

    • Currency Simulator to track and calculate a series of transactions across different currency types. Designed using OOP principles while showcasing an understanding of polymorphism and abstraction.

  • 3 Years of Experience:

    • KnowIT - A quiz app that allows the user to upload a CSV containing question/answer combinations to test themselves and receive immediate feedback on their performance. Features a scalable, modern, dark-mode UI with the ability to review incorrect answers at the end of the exam.

    • TFORM.IO - A text formatting crate that corrects randomized spacing and line-breaks and can generate either HTML or PDF files as output.

    • DARK FOREST - A modern approach to rocket control systems, this program is bare-metal Rust written exclusively for the FLIWIRE platform’s microprocessor. It receives pre-processed data from the Spartan7 FPGA and completes the fusing of sensor data. After analyzing this data to better identify trends and future states, DARK FOREST updates a shared memory bank with new weights for the PID controller running on Spartan7. This allows the FLIWIRE system to adapt to significant unexpected forces without compromising precision.

  • 3 Years of Experience:

    • RASP-OS - Multi-stage rocketry simulation that accounts for differences in mass changes, aerodynamic coefficient changes, and thrust-curve changes over time. It allows for testing of rocketry control algorithms and features both 2D and 3D representations of the rocket’s trajectory over time.

    • MATLAB - On-Ramp Certification

  • 3 Years of Experience:

    • “Hopper” 2D Game Design - Created a Frogger-like game with collision detection, health system, points, and lives.

    • Numerous scripts written to accomplish tasks such as document de-duplication in Boomi, complex data mapping/generation, or date/time calculations and conversions across time zones and formats.

  • 2 Years of Experience:

    • Course projects for CIS-21JA at De Anza College.
