Portfolio

Hi there! Welcome to my portfolio. This is where I showcase the projects that I've worked on, each with its own unique story and impact. Feel free to explore and learn more about the exciting projects I've been a part of.

Bear With Me

AI Engineering | Electronics | Digital Fabrication | UX Research

This project is an AI powered tool designed to help children build confidence in public speaking and self expression. Research with children, parents, and caregivers showed many kids struggle with speaking anxiety and lack safe spaces to practice. The system combines a playful digital coach and physical companion to create a fun, supportive, and encouraging learning experience.

Repurpose: IOT Ambient Kettle

Product Design| Electronics | Fabrication| Code

This project repurposes a damaged kettle into an IoT ambient vase that changes colors based on the time of day. Using an ESP32, LEDs, and a WorldTime API, the vase creates calming ambient lighting for everyday spaces. A clap sensor also allows users to control the colors, combining sustainability, interaction, and creative technology in one design.

Ambient Display

Digital Fabrication | Electronics | WebAPI Comms

This project is an ambient display that transforms live Wikipedia activity into calming light patterns and physical movement. Using an ESP32 and API integration, it turns digital data into a tangible experience. The project combines engineering, interaction design, laser cutting, and 3D printing to explore how technology and design can create meaningful, data driven everyday objects.

Robotic Blimp

Electronics| Soldering| Fabrication| Code

Challenge Completed! It's the final week at my institute for the Mandela Washington Fellowship and I'm glad I took the chance to build a drone at the Flying Robots Lab at Lehigh University.

Touch CMS

Accessibility Design | Computer Vision| AI Engineering

A tactile voice-first tool for learning and designing websites for the visually impaired. Modular blocks were designed based on knowledge from the Braille Authority of North America and 4 research papers
