• Simulating multi-robot systems and vision-based algorithms

• Generated over 10,000 synthetic aerial images of a moving pickup truck in NVIDIA Isaac Sim using domain randomization and ROS2 topic control.
• Mapped 3D bounding boxes to oriented bounding boxes (OBBs) and trained custom YOLOv11n-OBB models, achieving 4x higher AP@0.5 with an inference time under four milliseconds with limited real-world data.
• Processed drone-captured photogrammetry data in Blender and exported it to Isaac Sim as a terrain mesh for synthetic data generation.
• Created a SITL test framework combining ROS2 and PX4 for UAV-UGV teleoperation and wrote a pyMAVLink script to replay flight telemetry with visualization in QGroundControl and RViz2.

• Simulated a model for electrochemical hydrogen separation within proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs), specifically investigating the impact of hydrogen back-diffusion.
• Fabricated catalyst inks, catalyst-coated membranes (CCM), and Membrane Electrode Assemblies (MEA), contributing to the fuel cell research.
• Conducted fuel cell conditioning, cross-pressure and material characteristics tests and analyzed resulting data to optimize performance and efficiency.
• Troubleshot test stations and associated hardware through various hand tools and knowledge of piping systems and fittings.
• Documented Standard Operating Procedures (SOP) for operating test stations and preparing samples.

Mechatronic Machining and Testing Centre (MMTC) is a machine shop that offers cutting-edge equipment including a 3D printer, CNC milling machine, and a coordinate measuring machine (CMM) to produce functional prototypes of mechanical designs.

With the goal of teaching basic machining theory, Basics of Machine Tools offers hands-on machine shop training to help students accomplish basic machining tasks and other machine shop practices for mechanical design, prototyping and fabrication of the future projects.

Skills: Machining, Lathe, Milling, Hand Tools

Agritech 4.0 Bootcamp: Automation And Digital Technologies For Agriculture And Food Processing is an initiative supported by the BC Centre for Agritech Innovation (BCCAI) that provides practical training in emerging agricultural technologies to help make B.C.’s agricultural and food sector more sustainable, resilient, and globally competitive.

During this intensive program, I gained first-hand experience in agriculture through a blend of Robotics and Automation, the Industrial Internet of Things (I-IoT), Precision Farming, and Data Analytics and AI.

I also had the opportunity to present my machine learning project, which I was developing for a senior-year course at the time.

Skills: Precision Farming, Robotics, GIS, Sensors & Actuators, AI/ML, Industry 4.0

Siemens Mechatronic Systems Certification Program (SMSCP) focuses on hands-on professional training to help participants understand the underlying principles of complex mechatronic systems. I completed my training at Simon Fraser University (SFU) and passed the exam, demonstrating skills that I would not have learned or applied in class.
