SELECTED PROJECTS (Click a project to view details)

An embedded computer-vision system using the ESP32-CAM to capture vehicle images and perform license plate recognition (LPR).

An embedded safety monitoring system using an MQ-5 gas sensor and Arduino Uno to detect LPG, methane, hydrogen, and natural gas.

Designed and completed belt roller assembly and produced a full manufacturing drawing package. Including GD&T, isometric projections and threaded features.

A collection of notable projects performed and races results. This consisted of engine swaps, remodeling air intakes and replacing spark plugs.

An experimental system used to analyze the efficiency of an air turbine under controlled operating conditions. Ideal isentropic performance is compared with measured turbine behavior to provide insight into turbine performance.


A group case study analyzing the materials and manufacturing processes of a cooling tower nozzle. Including material/process identification and redesign trade-off analysis.

SUMMARY


This portfolio highlights a collection of academic, personal, and hands-on engineering projects that reflect my interests in embedded systems, manufacturing and applied problem-solving. Each project emphasizes translating theory into practice through design, analysis and prototyping. Together, these projects demonstrate my ability to approach problems systematically and deliver clear solutions.
