Summary
I’m a Computer Engineering major. My dream is to work in robotics engineering or a related field. A large amount of my experience is related to robotics and mechanical engineering. Here are some projects I have done so far. Bellow are some projects I want to highlight.
Projects
UNDER WATER ROV - Ongoing
I am currently working on an underwater robot. Some parts have been made, the enclosure model V1 prototype has been completed, and some progress has been made on the app used to control it. I split it into mini projects.

RCXD2 2024-2025
I did VEXU and was part of teams RCXD1 and RCXD2 from Cerritos Comunity College. I was the Team Captain and my designated role was the Lead programmer for the team I represented. I did more than just program. I design and model whole subassemblies as well.
Almost all of the custom parts in this Robot was desinged by me :O

Design Iteration
A lot of my projects are done using Onshape, but I’m well-versed in SolidWorks as well. I’m currently a CAD Design Engineer for a company called Borray. They primarily use SolidWorks and specialize in custom retail merchandising and food-display solutions for Trader Joe’s, Northgate, and more. So, if you enter a Trader Joe’s and see a banana display, just know that it could have been designed by me. :)
