I am a curious and driven electrical engineer with a background in both hardware and software. Currently at Dell Technologies, I design PCBs, architect systems, and build tools that bridge hardware design and software automation.
Things I've built and worked on
A hardware + firmware firewall enabling USB port control and management for enterprise Dell systems. Features hardware-level USB packet monitoring to prevent HID attacks and provide granular USB device management for IT administrators.
An independent, modular, low-power, always-on contextual awareness system for a concept notebook using multiple sensing modalities — UWB radar, capacitive sensing, charge domain imaging, ALS, and IMU — with on-device ML classification.
A custom-built dust test chamber with ESP32-controlled fan agitation and automated stress benchmarking to simulate accelerated real-world dust exposure for Dell systems deployed in high-dust environments.
Custom built hardware/software system for First Touch Indoor Soccer — team sign-up, queue management, and live scoreboard display powered by Raspberry Pi and WebSockets.
Notes on hardware engineering and EDA tooling
Building a CLI tool to diff PSTXNET netlists between design revisions, catching connectivity errors before they reach the PCB layout stage.
A practical engineering analysis of PCB surface finish options, covering cost, reliability, shelf life, and solder joint quality for different applications.
A beginner-friendly guide to setting up KiCad for multi-layer PCB design, covering stackup configuration, design rules, and best practices for 4+ layer boards.
I'm always open to discussing hardware design projects, EDA tooling, or consulting opportunities.
