Portfolio
My intention is to have the majority of items here be from before recent developments in AI. While leveraging AI tools can be incredibly useful, I find it is easier to exaggerate technical proficiency when using them, especially when shown in a short format like the items below.
01 / Selected work
In this personal project, I transformed my DSLR into a 3D Scanner using Python (OpenCV) and TwinCAT. The goal was to allow a 100$ digital camera to achieve similar results to $20,000 3D-scanning equipment.

This work project was designed to automate the task of creating complex and dynamic pneumatic AutoCAD drawings for any machine. Machine I/O and devices were already being entered into an Excel spreadsheet where PLC base programs and HMI screens could then be generated based off that info.

Worked directly with a major aerospace/defense company to build a server that acquires and handles data from a large robotic manufacturing cell (Siemens PLC, Cognex vision, MS SQL, CFX messages via RabbitMQ). Details are confidential, so no pictures, code, or video.

This very large custom spooler included 19 Kinetix drives powering 38 different servo motors. Large rolls of foam (used in N95 masks) were loaded into the unwind section where they were unwound and slit into strips in an isolated tension loop between the unwind and pull roll motors (using a pressurized "dancer" roll on a hinge as the positional feedback).

Developed a specialized Linux-based hypervisor platform for industrial PCs, with fully automated deployment via PXE network boot or USB installation. Built a custom Debian package that configures the hypervisor and exposes a clean, intuitive graphical frontend for engineers.

02 / About
I have many personal and work projects I plan on adding here. This website is still in its infant stages. While its not the most impressive website or web service I've created, it still highlights my wide range of skills.
I installed Linux and built my first website when I was 10 years old. This one I am hosting off a Linux (Ubuntu Server) droplet where I configured the domain and DNS, LAMP stack, installed Wordpress, and had the site running in less than an hour.
I have been obsessed with learning everything about programming and technology for as long as I've been alive. Whether its software, networking, hacking, controls and automation, robotics, computer 2D/3D vision, machine learning, or even programs like Photoshop/Resolve/AutoCAD Inventor and Electrical/Studio One/Logic Pro/etc. I am never done teaching myself and bringing myself to greater challenges, and I deeply enjoy guiding and teaching others as well.
I created this website in an effort to find the ultimate career path. While my career has been very fulfilling thus far, I hope to find a place where I can be challenged to heights I can't yet imagine. As a fellow engineer once told me, "there is not a problem behind a screen that I have not seen you solve."
