UBC Formula Electric
May 2026 - August 2026
Mechanical Engineering Intern
VETS Group
Four-month internship supporting mechanical engineering work on industrial ventilation, HVAC, and dust collection projects.
Sept 2025 - May 2026
Drivetrain Engineer
SUBC, UBC Submarine Design Team
Designing and validating 2:1 straight-bevel gearbox components for our human-powered submarine's drivetrain. Cut side plate mass 37% and eliminated slippage on the driving pinion.

Featured project
Oculus-controlled robotic arm
I designed and built the whole arm myself. It's modelled in SolidWorks, every part printed from scratch, no kit involved. I drive it in real time from a VR headset: move your hand, the arm follows.
- A 5-DOF arm built from scratch in SolidWorks, carrying joint loads on bearings rather than servo output shafts, with two shoulder servos mirrored across a single pivot to share torque
- A linear parallel gripper whose jaws stay flat to each other, so the contact point sits in the same place no matter how far it opens
- Three design iterations of tuning print orientation, press-fit tolerances and fastener access (DFM/DFA). It assembles from FDM parts and off-the-shelf hardware using hand tools
- A WebXR app solves closed-form inverse kinematics at 50 Hz, a Node.js bridge maps joint angles to servo commands, and C++ ESP32 firmware enforces per-joint velocity and acceleration limits over serial/UDP
