i build things that sit at the edge of mechanical, electrical, and software systems —
then make them smarter with AI and more accessible for everyone.
🔩 mechatronics — 3D-printed mechanisms, embedded systems, sensor fusion, control loops
🧠 machine learning — computer vision, neural nets, TensorFlow, real-time inference on hardware
🌐 full-stack — React, Next.js, web apps that actually ship
♿ assistive tech — building technology that removes barriers, not creates them
🏆 hackathons — consistently competing, consistently building weird and useful stuff
languages python · c++ · javascript · typescript
frontend react · next.js · tailwind
ml / ai tensorflow · pytorch · opencv
hardware arduino · raspberry pi · solidworks · altium
tools git · docker · figma · linux
- 🔭 working on projects at the intersection of embedded AI and accessibility
- 🛠️ prototyping hardware that thinks for itself

if it's accessible, it's better engineering.
