• Undergraduate Researcher at di Carlo Lab

  • Sep 2022 - Present

  I am aiding a Ph. D. student with his research on making digital enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISAs) more accessible to underserved communities and areas with fewer resources. As part of running experiments and collecting data, I prepare dilute solutions for assays and particle production, and gels for making channeled devices and reservoirs. I also have benchmarked antigen binding and analyzed fluorescent signals with MATLAB. I am aiding a Ph.

Biomedical Engineering Society at UCLA

• Build Team Project Manager

  • Apr 2022 - Present

  I help develop and teach modules covering advanced circuitry, C++ coding with Arduino, and CAD modeling. I also act as a guide for new Build Team members to improve their hard skills on their way to building their own pulse oximeters.

• Build Team Member

  • Oct 2021 - Jun 2022

  I attended weekly workshops to learn about circuitry, coding, and computer-modeling, and learned to utilize C++, Java, Fusion360, Eagle, and TinkerCAD. My group and I designed a pulse oximeter combining software and Arduino, and we presented the project internally.



Self-employed

• Private Tutor

  • Oct 2021 - Present

  I explain and teach difficult topics in calculus and physics, and provide guidance for approaching and solving complex problems. I also aim to Improve students' test-taking strategies and studying techniques.

  With my group, we designed wireless monitoring equipment that better accommodates the constant movement associated with neonatal and pediatric patient care. I delegated the work among my group members and became the main facilitator during discussion. We presented project to a panel of industry experts at the end of the intensive program.
