About Me

Engineering innovative solutions across hardware and software domains

Working environment

Building at the Intersection of Hardware & Software

I’m studying Mechatronics Engineering and Physics, combining a passion for building things with a curiosity for how they work. What started with taking apart gadgets has grown into designing PCBs, developing robots, and writing the software that brings them to life.

My work focuses on creating intelligent systems that bridge hardware and software. From custom circuit design and microcontroller programming to full-stack web applications built with React and Next.js. I enjoy projects that challenge me to think across disciplines and connect theory with real-world application.

Outside of classes and projects, I’m often exploring new technologies, competing in robotics events, or prototyping ideas that merge engineering and physics in creative ways.

Software Development

Full-stack web development with React, Next.js, and modern JavaScript frameworks.

PCB Design

Custom circuit board design and embedded systems for robotics and IoT projects.

Robotics & Automation

Building intelligent systems that combine mechanical, electrical, and software engineering.

Innovation

Rapidly prototyping ideas from concept to reality, bridging hardware and software.
