• Worked with a team of 10 throughout senior year 2024-2025 for the senior design capstone project, focused on the
Robotic Submarine Autonomous Vehicle to prepare it for the RoboSub 2025 competition.
• Captain of the autonomy subteam, led 2 other individuals to help set up nodes for our RoboSub vehicle to
coordinate in-competition movement underwater.
• Responsible for coordinating with other subteam captains for controls and computer vision to determine
progression of robot, as well as coding the autonomy nodes

Jeopardy Python Game, Worked in a team of 3 to recreate a Jeopardy game board using Python GUIs that offer
questions under the computer science topic GitHub
• Book Exchange System, Worked in a team of 6 to create an online book exchange system that functions like a
bookstore, where users can add and remove books using Anaconda and Python Try it!
• Skyfall, Used Unity and CSharp to create a VR game revolved around the idea of skydiving. Includes music, assets,
and Oculus controls.

Student Researcher
Cal State LA, CA, USA March 2024-May 2025
• Worked under Dr. Negin Forouzesh throughout the summer PREC program sponsored by NSF to reproduce results
previously created by her masters student.
• Intersection between chemistry and computer science to simulate protein-ligand binding for HIV-1 protease to aid
drug discovery. Used AMBER and Curie cluster to run VR simulations of the protein-ligand docking.
• Moved forward in the research by further exploring 8 more different ligands that bind to HIV-1 Protease via the
innovative VR approach to visualizing drug discovery.
