Sep 2019 - Nov 2020
I began working full time in Texas Instruments' rotation program in September 2019. In my first rotation I increased customer transfer speeds by adding a DMA transfer functionality feature to SPI and UART protocol examples for an EVM. In my second rotation I have so far expanded TI's device example portfolio by porting a 4-wire touchscreen demo that leverages open source graphics library lvgl, GPIO, and ADC from one TI family of chips to another. I additionally improved our customer out of the box experience by creating python scripts to automate formatting driver demos and documentation for placement on TI Resource Explorer. Show less

Graduate Teaching Associate
-
Aug 2017 - May 2019
I became a Graduate Teaching Associate in 2017 as I pursued my Master's degree. I was in charge of two lab sections where I lead students through explorations in a variety of hands-on engineering labs. I was also in charge of a teaching team who assisted in grading the student's technical writing skills. I also became the embedded software design lead where I helped oversee undergraduate teaching assistant projects such as enhancing our XBEE wireless range on our robot controllers and capabilities such as loading a bootloader on to the controllers via SD card.

May 2018 - Aug 2018
In my third and final internship with Texas Instruments I created scripts for TI’s internal testing platform that flashed various hardware platforms and tested the performance of software running on those platforms. Additionally I implemented a radar test setup that automatically rotated a platform that held various radar boards so that their activation could be automated in nightly builds.

In my second internship role with Texas Instruments I worked on the BLE team in San Diego. That summer I designed and implemented an ECC SHA-256 security protocol for BLE OAD on TI’s CC2640R2F board to a given specification. I also created a python tool that signed binary images, and added an embedded C solution to the board to verify on-chip and off-chip flash images.

Undergraduate Teaching Associate

Aug 2014 - May 2017
I was an undergraduate teaching assistant from 2014-2017. In this role I taught students MATLAB, C and C++, engineering graphics, technical writing skills, and general problem solving skills. Additionally, I collaborated with other teaching assistants to ideate, design, and create a new course for student's robots to complete each year. I was a secondary lead on the micro-controller software design where I implemented I2C software libraries on a Freescale K60 processor that enabled data to be read from an accelerometer. I also adapted SPI software libraries from other processors to work for a touchscreen library on a Freescale K60 processor. Show less

May 2016 - Aug 2016
In my first internship with Texas Instruments I planned, designed, and implemented a C++ program to optimize the WEBENCH waveform generation process. This consisted of creating a basic parser for configuration files, interfacing with an API in order to read data, and creating multiple classes in order to store and manipulate data.
