Neuromorphic Computing Research Assistant

• May 2022 - Present

The lab focuses on making blocks of resin that have conductive nickel fibers suspended randomly throughout and training the blocks by overloading undesirable pathways so that the blocks behave like logic gates. I have been working to develop the training algorithm so that it can successfully train any randomly assembled Nickel Nanowire Network. I have also spent 30+ hours working with an optical microscope and 15+ hours working with a Scanning Electron Microscope.I have presented the research we have conducted and the results we've seen at a Research Conference in February 2023 at the University of Utah.

Microfluidic Temperature Control Research Assistant

• Jun 2022 - Feb 2023

I spent the first 2 months running experiments on the microfluidic chips that had been designed and printed already and provided feedback on issues that I saw. The goal of the microfluidic chips is to regulate temperature precisely enough as to accurately measure the melting temperature of DNA strands. This process will eventually aid the medical field in detecting mutations in DNA. I then worked on developing a calorimeter with using the knowledge we have gained on microfluidics.

I updated engineering drawings of the connections between all the different equipment that was in the Server room and offices

Teaching Assistant - Mechanical Engineering Department

• Jan 2022 - Apr 2022

As a teacher’s assistant, I was in charge of coordinating the efforts of the other 2 TA’s and myself to complete the grading of the different assignments that were turned in 2 or 3 times a week. I also spent time tutoring the students one on one.

Teaching Assistant - Physics Department

• Jan 2021 - Apr 2022

I have been a TA for 2 different Physics classes at BYU(Physics 105 and 107). In one of them I was in charge of guiding and helping groups conduct experiments. My sections scored among the highest grades in the class. In the other class I spent time tutoring the students when they needed extra help understanding the concepts.

BYU Building Care Specialist

• Feb 2020 - Dec 2021

Lead Electronics Engineer

• May 2022 - Present

I am currently working as the Sub Team Lead for the Electronics Sub-Team of the Formula Electric Car Team here at BYU. In May 2022, 3 other members and I founded the Formula Electric Team at BYU and began working and making plans in order to build a competitive race team within the next 2 years. There are now around 50 active members on the team. I led the Electronics team as we decided on the necessary electrical components and decided on what to include in our sensor package. We are currently developing the electrical circuit, the program that will be on the car, and the user interface to analyze the collected data. Show less

Design Engineer

• Aug 2022 - Feb 2023

Self Starter Kits is a start up company that creates educational engineering kits for beginners. The first kit that has been developed is the Spaghetti Watch. I designed and manufactured the 3D printed case for the watch. I also helped to make adjustments and refinements to the program that was uploaded to the watch. As a company, we entered into the Student Innovator of the Year Competition here at BYU. Of the 49 companies that entered we earned an honorable mention to being one of the 7 finalist companies.
