I worked with a team of engineers to produce a modular, scalable, accurate, and autonomous process for building
solar arrays utilizing a patent provided by NASA through the NASA Technology Transfer University (T2U) program.
The print-assisted photovoltaic assembly (PAPA) patent is an automated process for assembling thin-film solar
cells into larger solar arrays using robotic arms. Our process is broken down into four steps: placing a substrate
onto a heated bed, applying adhesive to the substrate, printing the interconnects to connect the cells, and placing
the solar cells using a vacuum tool.
I worked with a team of engineers to develop a customer support chatbot. The chatbot was designed to assist in effectively navigating the platform. This includes answering questions about the platform's features, interview process, as well as provide support for account issues and technical problems. My primary contributions were in the UI design and creating features that improved the user experience such as auto scrolling when new messages appear.
In my Compiler Design class I developed a compiler for the custom programming language bC, a simplified variant of C with unique features created by Dr. Joules "BC" Beeston. The project involved creating a complete compiler pipeline, including lexical analysis, syntax validation, semantic analysis, and assembly code generation.
In collaboration with two other students, I developed an e-commerce website that integrates a search system akin to Best Buy and enables users and businesses to list and purchase goods and services similar to eBay. The site features vendor listings for tech products and services, with various internet service options and pricing.
