What I'm looking for

I am looking for innovative projects that blend technology with community impact and education.

I am an embedded systems and IoT engineer with over three years of hands-on experience in designing, programming, and deploying real-time solutions across various sectors, including education, industrial automation, and sustainability. My journey has been marked by significant achievements, such as delivering IoT training to over 150 learners and leading the development of a biodigester monitoring system that improved fault detection response by 40%. I thrive on bridging hardware-software integration and have contributed to database optimization and interface development for smart health and utility systems.

My professional ethos centers around innovation and community impact. I am excited to contribute to purpose-driven engineering projects that blend technology with education. My experience includes developing sensor-to-cloud pipelines, conducting user research, and creating interactive dashboards tailored for low-tech users. I am committed to fostering collaboration and enhancing user experiences through intuitive designs and effective technical documentation.
