Big Projects

Showcase '24 - EMG Prosthetic Hand

This project was inspired by amputees. People should not be limited to the functionality of their limbs. We built an EMG-powered prosthetic hand using a MyoWare sensor to control servos for hand motion.

How can engineering improve modern healthcare?

We can create robotic helpers that follow gestures for lab safety, and prosthetic designs that give users better control and feedback.

Showcase '25 - AI Traffic Optimization

How can AI optimize traffic flow and safety at Innovation Academy during peak hours?

The research aims to design machine learning models to analyze traffic data and predict congestion. A dynamic, AI-driven system can reduce wait times and improve pedestrian safety by adjusting signals and providing routing suggestions during peak times.

About Me

I'm a senior at Innovation Academy passionate about computer science, engineering, and AI. I enjoy designing hardware, writing code, and turning ideas into real projects — from robotic arms to smart greenhouse systems. Outside of tech I play soccer, box, and volunteer in my community. I like building useful things that help people and make learning fun.
