I am a recent college graduate looking to pivot into a professional role in an electrical engineering environment. I have learned common electrical software and knowledge during my off time and am looking to apply what I know and build my career at a focused and motivated firm.

Biometric Verification Capstone Project

• Designed Arduino circuit to scan in fingerprint and display visual feedback to user - ran at only 5V
• Utilized AutoCAD modeling to design casing for circuit - allowed for a portable product
• Coded parts of corresponding software to securely store biometric data beyond basic methods 100% of time

Integrated Circuit for Game Development

• Designed FPGA circuit using Verilog code to implement ‘Whack-a-Mole’ onto Nexys A7 board
• Also optimized CPU units via Vivado to allow game to run ~22% faster
• User was able to play game directly on the circuit board

AI-Driven Software Project for University

• Worked with Tuskegee University's agriculture department to optimize drone imagery capture of crop fields
• Trained multiple models to automatically detect and crop out plant images to replace manual process
• Cropping model (using YOLOv8) had ~98% accuracy, segmentation model (using SAM) had ~92% accuracy

• Currently studying for FE certification
• Past CompTIA A+ certification
