About Me

I am an undergraduate student at Northeastern University currently pursuing a bachelor's degree in computer engineering and computer science. I will be graduating in May 2025. My hometown is New York City, NY. Some of my hobbies include collecting, video game designing, and listening to music. Thoughout my time in university and my personal accomplishments, I have accumulated multiple years of experience in computer programming and a wide-ranging knowledge of various programming languages. I am eager to work in fields of software development and data analysis. Some of my personal strengths is I am focused, detail-oriented, and have a strong work ethic.

My Services

Autonomous Drone

Betaflight path planning system to direct a path with the inlcusion of object detection design through ultrasonic sensors. Use of AI camera recognition to identify and track people.

Game development

Usage of pygame libraries to create a game. Provides interations to characters and real-time updates on features. Involves actions to be made implementing visual sprite changes for each frames.

Computer Vision

Utilizing computer vision with YOLO to identify certain desciptions and specifications. Processing object detection using bounding box features and measurement of precision to assist in counters and other real world applications.

Database Design

Manually creating SQL database including tables, triggers, functions, procedure, and more. Connecting database to python script to perform CRUD operations and update database.

My Work

Drone Automation Capstone Project

Programmed flight planning and single path route for autonomous drone that integrates ultrasonic sensors to detect objects in its path. Drone uses AI image recognition to identify people that may be in trouble. Additionally, once identified, images can be captured and sent back to user to investigate the situation.

Pygame Ling Valley App

Pygame designed application made as a replica to Stardew Valley featuring series of interactions. Additionally, the game features real-time updates such as sprite movements and actions.

Computer Vision Detection Project

Using YOLO as the deep learning model through convolutional neural network to detect specific objects in images and videos in real time. Detection is used for counters and created bounding boxes around objects and people. Futhermore, objects that are identified have to be above a certain percision boundary.

Database Design

Creating a mySQL database for a local laundromat. Creating triggers, functions, procedures, and more to assist in CRUD operations that reflect the daily scenario in the laundromat. Additionally, it will output total earnings for the day after all operations are done.
