02 / about
I design PCBs and build power electronics hardware, from schematic to bring-up.
Third-year Electrical Engineering student at UBC (Biomedical Option), currently designing the EMG signal-acquisition board for a prosthetic arm at UBC Bionics. I'm working toward power electronics and power systems roles: converter design, gate drive, and the PCB layout that has to carry it all.
Building toward
- Converter topologies
- Gate drive
- Magnetics
- Thermal management
- EMI/EMC
- PCB layout
open to work
Available for co-op: 4, 8 or 12 months starting May 2027
