Hi there 👋

Welcome to my GitHub profile! I'm currently an undergraduate at The Ohio State University studying computer engineering. I'm heavily involved with Ohio State's Underwater Robotics Team, which is focused on developing autonomous underwater vehicles to compete in RoboSub.

I have a wide range of interests and skills involving:

Microcontroller Firmware Development
Reverse engineering and hacking hardware to add additional features
PCB Design and Assembly
FPGA development with Verilog
Developing a wide range of tools to streamline development and testing

Check out my repositories pinned below for some of the work I have done:

titan_firmware: Firmware for the RP2040 microcontrollers on the Underwater Robotics Team, written in C after I switched the team from micropython to enable more advanced features.
electric_boogaloo: Contains the board designs for Underwater Robotics, including the Tempest Mark 2 electronics which I lead the design for, as well as the Tempest Mark 2 Smart Battery Housing MCU board, one of the boards I personally designed.
SWTPCSequencer: A music sequencer I wrote for Look Mum No Computer's SWTPC 6809 as an assembly and emulation exercise.

SMORT: Emergency Shelter Location Software Improve the efficiency of emergency shelters by streamlining the process of locating and checking into shelters. SMORT is a combination of two Android apps, one for the user (to locate and check into shelters), and one for the shelter organizers, as well as a server side application to manage it all.
