Education & Leadership
UBC
I recently completed my Bachelor of Applied Science in Electrical Engineering at the University of British Columbia (UBC). In my final year, I had been diving into some fascinating areas of the field. I explored power electronics, focusing on efficient energy management in systems, and modern control techniques, which help optimize how devices and processes function. I also have been delving into applied machine learning, looking at how it can tackle complex engineering challenges. My capstone design project tied it together, letting me apply sustainable design principles, circuit analysis, and system dynamics to create a practical solution. This was built on a solid base from earlier years—things like electricity, magnetism, and computational tools—and it gave me the skills to make a real impact in electrical engineering

ENGR 413: Law and Ethics for Engineers
Course Overview
ENGR 413: Law and Ethics for Engineers is a fourth-year course, taught by Dr. Lukas Bichler. Lectures occur Wednesdays and Fridays (3:30–5:00 p.m., COM 201), with bi-weekly quizzes and guest lectures from industry professionals. The course explores ethical dilemmas, legal frameworks, and professional responsibilities in engineering, covering topics like contracts, torts, and intellectual property. Assessments include ethics quizzes (30%), law quizzes (30%), and a final exam (40%), blending theory with real-world case studies.

- Grasp professional duties and societal responsibilities.
Key Project
Ethics and Law Case Studies
Bi-weekly quizzes (e.g., Jan 17, Mar 7) task me with analyzing real-world scenarios—like whistleblowing or contract disputes—using ethical frameworks and legal principles. Supported by guest lectures (e.g., EGBC, Lawson Lundell), these in-class exercises test my ability to navigate complex professional challenges.
CLUBS & LEADERSHIP
As the Webmaster Executive for the IEEE UBCO Student Branch, I managed an e-commerce platform called The Hackerspace Store providing electrical components to engineering students. Built with Next.js, the platform integrated APIs, Stripe for payments, and an automatically maintained database. During the six-month development process, my teammates and I resolved around 1,000 bugs, ensuring a seamless user experience before launch. After deployment, I continuously received feedback from users, addressing bugs and implementing improvements to enhance the platform. The store became a key resource for course projects, providing reliable and immediate access to essential components. I also designed and led the club’s annual PCB workshop, aimed at beginners. Participants worked with a general-purpose PCB I created, featuring USB-C power, UART, SPI, I2C connections, and an STM32 chip. The workshop demonstrated programming a PID controller with temperature sensors but allowed flexibility for other applications, encouraging exploration and innovation.
