Guided Muscle Rehabilitation System Using EMG — Cal State Long Beach | 10/2025–12/2025

• Designed and implemented a real-time surface EMG fatigue monitoring system for upper-limb rehabilitation
• Programmed an Arduino Uno to acquire 500 Hz EMG signals and apply multi-stage digital filtering
• Developed subject-specific calibration thresholds and a four-LED feedback system to indicate fatigue levels
• Processed and visualized EMG data in MATLAB for threshold analysis and participant comparison
• Tested the system with multiple participants performing biceps curls to evaluate activation and fatigue trends

Medical Inhaler Device Design — SolidWorks | 10/2024–12/2024

• Designed and modeled a multi-component medical inhaler device in SolidWorks
• Created dimensioned part drawings and cross-sectional views to show internal structure and tolerances
• Assembled components using mates and constraints to verify alignment, fit, and function
• Generated exploded assembly views and a bill of materials for documentation
• Applied design-for-assembly principles to support manufacturability and component integration

Saint Mary Magdalene — Audio Visual Technician, Volunteer | 02/2021–Present

• Operate audio-visual equipment for weekly services, including microphones, speakers, soundboards, and projection systems
• Troubleshoot live audio and visual issues to support uninterrupted events
