01.About Me

Hey! I'm an Electrical Engineering student at the University of Louisville's J.B. Speed School of Engineering. I am currently pursuing my Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering (expected Dec 2027) along with a Master of Engineering (expected May 2029).

I have practical engineering experience through my co-op at Nifco Americans and my current role as a Student Worker at the Speed Center for Innovation, where I help students learn hands-on electronics, hardware prototyping, and PCB design. I also serve as an ELLC Peer Mentor, assisting first-year engineering students.

Here are a few skills I've been working with recently:

  • ▹ SolidWorks
  • ▹ VHDL
  • ▹ Programming
  • ▹ Logic Design
  • ▹ Network Analysis
  • ▹ PCB Design
