Warehouse on wheels. Joined before the Series A and worked on the actuators, power management and the robot's physical design, along with the electronics cabinet, PCBs, harnesses and CAN bus, to get it ready for customer pilots.

Co-invented the patent-pending M3 thrombectomy robot. Designed and manufactured miniature magnetic robots to steer to and capture blood clots, ran the FEA, and helped build the vision-based tracking.

Built on-board diagnostics for heavy-duty engines that run on ethanol instead of diesel: modular Simulink libraries that monitor digital, analog and CAN signals across the engine, plus a test harness to validate them.

Integrated sensors and actuators on autonomous airport baggage tractors, wrote a J1939 layer carrying 60+ sensor messages between the MCU and VCU, and automated analysis of 4.5M+ lines of CAN, IMU and GNSS logs. Product video ↗

A modular magnetic robot for stroke thrombectomy. Steered by an external magnet on a UR16e arm, its segments travel through the vessel and expand at the clot. Built at ASU's Bio-Inspired Robotics, Technology & Healthcare Lab with Mayo Clinic.

Led the electrical design of a 3D-printed myoelectric arm for children, from the muscle sensors to the servos, and co-wrote the grant applications. An EPICS at ASU project.

Tuned an ostrich-inspired gait in MuJoCo with soft-body physics, then built the robot with an ESP32 and servos and compared its stride and stability with the sim. Group project.

Led the robotic arm on the club's rover for the University Rover Challenge (URC), and helped run the 50-member club on the management team.
