Summary
Dedicated and resourceful student with a multifaceted background encompassing basic research experience, volunteerism, and administrative roles. As a Research Assistant at the University of Michigan's EECS Department, I worked for Professor Mohammed Islam on driver monitoring systems and demonstrated expertise in software development and research group participation. My commitment to community engagement led me to volunteer at Tera Farm, where I actively contributed to enhancing small-scale farmers' online sales. Furthering my passion for innovation, I embarked on an independent machine learning project, inspired by a local research program, to classify artifacts for the British Museum. Project advice from Professor Manoj Franklin at the University of Maryland enriched my project and deepened my knowledge in the field. Overall, I bring a strong work ethic, adaptability, and a commitment to excellence to any role, backed by a diverse skill set and a track record of successful contributions to various projects and organizations.
