About Me

I’m a fourth-year Electrical Engineering student at McMaster University with a strong interest in power systems, electrical power generation, and embedded hardware. Through internships and projects, I’ve worked on low-voltage power distribution, system simulations, and hardware prototyping using tools like Power BI, MATLAB, and Verilog. I enjoy applying technical skills to real-world challenges—whether it’s optimizing energy systems or designing embedded solutions that bridge software and hardware.
