About Me

• Built waypoint-based drone simulations and a simulated obstacle course in NVIDIA Isaac Sim with Cesium & ROS2 • Implemented Docker/Linux workflows; scripted runs in Python • Shipped a web platform in Next.js/React/CesiumJS to export video datasets for VLM training

Graduated with coursework and projects spanning autonomy, simulation, and space systems.

• Led the Autonomy & Controls subteam; authored FDIR architecture for autonomous 3D-printing payload ops • Integrated a CNN-based inspection system on onboard AI compute • Awards: 1st place at VT Space Senior Design Expo; 2nd place nationally at the COSMIC Capstone Challenge

National finalist; recognized for autonomy architecture and inspection pipeline.

• Built an interactive web tool for real-time SuperDARN radar access to improve research workflows • Analyzed space-weather/ionosphere links (solar flares, SWFs) using Python/Pandas/Matplotlib/pyDARN to study seasonal HF communication disruptions

• Implemented semantic equation lookup with automated LaTeX generation • Streamlined documentation workflows for technical writing

• Built a YouTube audio transcription tool to improve accessibility for non-English audiences

• Led diagnostics on turboshaft engines and APUs; improved aircraft reliability (+15%) and reduced unscheduled maintenance (−20%) • Performed flight diagnostics and vibration analyses during tactical missions

• Developed YOLO/OpenCV-based real-time object detection for surveillance; reduced human error in 24/7 monitoring

• Implemented auth, role-based permissions, and full CRUD to support student/pro community Q&A

• Investigated L-1011 TriStar operational data to identify airworthiness issues and inform safety/maintenance protocols

A foundational period of growth and adaptation: Academic Journey: Embarked on Aerospace Engineering studies at Virginia Tech as an international student, successfully navigating the transition to the American engineering education system while maintaining consistent academic performance. Leadership Development (2017-2020): Member of Virginia Tech Corps of Cadets' Citizen Leader Track, progressing to Squad Leader role. Led diverse team of 10 cadets, fostering teamwork through daily training activities and mentorship. Demonstrated strong time management by coordinating squad training schedules, maintaining unit standards, and balancing rigorous engineering coursework with leadership responsibilities. Recognition: Received the Emerging Leader Scholarship for three consecutive years (2017-2020), recognizing dedication to both academic progress and leadership development. This achievement reflects commitment to personal growth in both technical and leadership areas.
