Robotics & ML Engineer
I'm an engineer based out of Waterloo and Toronto, focused on physical AI and autonomous robotics. Over the past few years I've worked on robots from competition bots to humanoids, across everything from software and hardware to autonomy and AI. Right now I'm building humanoid robots with WATonomous.
What motivates me most is seeing engineering make a positive impact on people's lives, especially in medtech. I previously worked on AI/ML for medical imaging at Ramsoft. I also love photography, sports, and reading.
Robotics Engineer · Humanoid Team
Building UWaterloo's first humanoid robot, working across the stack on physical AI, perception, and firmware. Developing 3D SLAM and learned policies for autonomy, including RL, IL, and VLA finetuning. Working from simulation through to deployment on real hardware.
AI/ML Software Engineer Intern
Worked on software and AI for medical imaging technology used by healthcare professionals in hospitals and imaging centres around the world, including a production AI assistant and a data analysis agent for the OmegaAI platform.
Research Assistant
Developed and integrated a low-cost motion capture system for tracking autonomous drones indoors, as part of the CViSS lab at the University of Waterloo.
Software Developer & Team Lead
Built robots to compete in the FIRST Robotics Competition, working across computer vision systems, mechanical prototyping, and full-stack development. Directed team strategy by using data to select playoff alliances, directly contributing to playoff success.
Co-Founder & Chair
Empowering youth to address impactful problems while learning engineering, with branches across Canada reaching over 2,000 people, supported by UWaterloo's startup incubator. Leading an engineering team of undergraduates developing and teaching machine learning and computer vision through workshops and events.
Award winner · Toyota Innovation Challenge
A hands-free quality control system for production lines: a voice-triggered camera hard hat paired with a robotic arm that spots defective parts and pulls them off the line on its own.
Best Hardware Hack · EurekaHacks
Glasses that detect dangerous flashing light and polarize to block it before it reaches the wearer, helping prevent photosensitive seizures.
Reinforcement learning agents trained to navigate, compared against classical planners like A* and RRT in a custom-built robot physics simulator.
