• Programmed Click PLC using ladder logic to control automated solar array deployment and retraction sequences. • Designed and assembled prototype circuitry; soldered protoboards and wired connections for PLC integration. • Created solar tracking mechanism inspired by the Parker Solar Probe. • Designed 3D-printed two-way limit switches to allow array legs to automatically level on uneven lunar surfaces.
* Designed and built optical, encoder, and motor components that model ASML's EUV lithography machines for Cornell Instructional Labs for over 200 undergraduate students. * Designed and tested a robust wind turbine nacelle that houses a magnetic particle brake to measure the RPM of blades designed by undergraduates. * Used CAD to fully model the Curtiss OX-5 Engine with working linkages. The model is now in the Glenn Curtiss Museum and for academic use at Cornell University.
* One of 77 students selected nationally to study number theory, combinatorics, and computer science under IMO medalists and coaches * Participated in Jane Street's Electronic Trading Competition focused on developing ETF trading bots for automated market exchanges
