Tricorder-Like Device Design Project
The main goal for the project is to create three 3D renderings of tricorder-like devices, modernized for contemporary use in the rock, gem, and fossil industry. The prototypes will be designed in three versions: an industrial model, a phone attachment model, and a handheld model. The primary function of these devices will be to analyze and identify the composition of rocks, gems, and fossils, and present the results in a user-friendly manner to democratize access to scientific information.

Ammolite-Powered Secure Microchip Prototype Development
The project aims to design and 3D model a functional prototype of an ammolite-powered microchip, leveraging the unique optical properties of ammolite to enhance security features. The primary goal is to integrate Physical Unclonable Functions (PUFs) and quantum-resistant cryptographic protocols into the design, providing unparalleled security and authentication. This project offers learners the opportunity to apply their knowledge of advanced circuit design and cryptography in a simulated, practical setting. The 3D model will serve as a foundational concept for visualizing and refining the product, with the potential for large-scale implementation across various industries. The project focuses on creating a secure and efficient microchip concept that can withstand emerging security threats, ensuring robust protection for sensitive data.
Work experience
Research and Design
ForceN
May 2024 - Current
Designed a fabrication process for a micro-strain gauge, a pressure sensor made from a unique metal foil. Leveraged the electronic properties that emerge from patterning a metal foil in a specific way to accurately detect pressure. These pressure sensors can provide feedback from surgical instruments, aiding surgeons in telling them how much force to apply, helping avoid unintentional damage to internal tissues.
Research Assistant
Multi-Scale Additive Manufacturing (MSAM)
January 2023 - August 2023
Prepared 3D-printed metal samples for SEM analysis using various metallurgy machines, including an abrasive cutter, hot mount press, autopolisher, and vibropolisher. Analyzed samples with an optical microscope to assess surface grain structure and identify defects. Optimized the sample preparation process based on visual data, leading to an 80% reduction in defects over 4 months. Coordinated sample preparation duties for two distinct research teams concurrently.
Process Engineer
Teledyne DALSA
September 2021 - April 2022
Conducted audits on the fabrication and packaging process for microchips used in imaging technologies. Developed a strong understanding on how to sort, package, and store microchips for shipping and long-term storage. Also developed a novel first-in-first-out process for storing epoxy - a special adhesive used in the fabrication process for these microchips.
