Graduate Research Assistant

Mississippi State University - Starkville, MS

Collaborated with Center for Advanced Vehicular Systems (CAVS) researchers on autonomous vehicle perception systems using LIDAR, radar, and low-cost cameras. Leveraged GPUs and deep learning frameworks (TensorFlow, OpenCV) to detect and track lanes under diverse road conditions. Applied ML techniques like SqueezeSeg for camera-LIDAR sensor fusion. Led multiple SDR-based projects: (1) AI-powered triangulation system to locate contraband cell phones in prisons, (2) spectrum scanning system to detect RF activity using IQ data for passive microwave sensing, and (3) Wi-Fi-based human activity recognition using ML. Selected as 1 of 10 for the MSU/USDA Summer Research Experience. Contributed to 5G research with 5 universities and National Instruments, experimenting with srsLTE/RAN, OAI, and Amarisoft as a Part 107 FAA-certified drone pilot.

PCB Design Engineer Co-op

Hunter Engineering Company - Raymond, MS

Designed system-level functional testers for PCBs used in Hunter Engineering products (e.g., car lifts, wheel balancers, and tire changers). Created end-to-end test systems, including custom PCBs, displays, and interfaces, to verify board functionality before assembly. Developed intuitive LabVIEW GUIs and C/C++ backend code to ensure ease of use by operators with no technical background, minimizing user error. Integrated camera-based defect detection using OpenCV and built testers compatible with Aegis Factory Logix. Delivered robust, operator-friendly systems that improved quality control and production efficiency.
