As a recent graduate with a master’s degree in mechanical engineering, I have established a strong foundation in robotics, dynamics, and controls. My academic journey concluded with the defense of my thesis, where I explored different trajectories for an innovative amphibious crab-like robot. This project not only allowed me to demonstrate a proficiency in robotics principles, Python, C++, and ROS, but also gave me the opportunity to improve my problem-solving and communication skills.
I’m driven by the prospect of applying theoretical concepts to solve real-world problems, and I am eager to help bring the robotic future to the present. I am actively seeking opportunities that embrace emerging technologies, encourage forefront thinking, and value continuous learning.
