Work History

Undergraduate Research Assistant

Florida Atlantic University
08.2025 - Current
  • Derived and implemented auditory and spectral looming equations (dB-based and Hz-based) to estimate Time-to-Contact (TTC), achieving >0.99 Pearson correlation between simulation estimates and ground-truth physics models.
  • Designed rule-based threat detection system (0–5 scoring scale) that fused auditory looming with Doppler-based acceleration signals, improving TTC classification accuracy under acceleration/deceleration scenarios.
  • Developed Python simulation and real-time visualization of looming-based threat detection using matplotlib animations, creating an interactive model of an approaching train with dynamic TTC and threat level monitoring.
  • Created reproducible codebase with modular functions for looming, TTC, and threat scoring, structured for potential extension into machine learning and sensor fusion research.
  • Collaborated with faculty mentor to translate theoretical models of visual looming into auditory and frequency domains, contributing to early-stage research on multimodal sensor fusion for obstacle detection.

Calculus Tutor/Learning Assistant

Florida Atlantic University
01.2025 - Current
  • Tutored 40+ students per semester in Calculus I & other college-level mathematics, driving exam score improvement.
  • Broke down complex problems into clear, logical steps, strengthening analytical and computational thinking.
  • Created custom learning materials (practice problems, guides, and visual aids) that enhanced conceptual understanding and retention.
  • Facilitated collaborative problem-solving sessions, building teamwork and communication skills applicable to technical projects.
  • Adapted teaching methods to diverse learning styles, demonstrating flexibility and creative problem-solving.
  • Recognized for being approachable, patient, and effective, fostering a supportive environment for skill development.
