About
One stack, two domains: electric vehicles and autonomous aircraft.
I'm a senior honors student at Santa Clara University, graduating in 2027 with a double major in Electrical and Mechanical Engineering and a 3.7 GPA. I learn by building the full stack, schematic to PCB to firmware to mechanical to control, and shipping the result to a hard deadline.
Since 2023 I've owned the high-voltage electrical stack on SCU's Formula SAE electric cars: programming the Orion BMS 2 on a ~420 V accumulator, designing and reviewing shutdown, precharge, and IMD safety circuits, architecting the vehicle CAN network, and soldering a 140+ thermistor harness whose placement strategy improved measurement accuracy by roughly 50 percent. At STMicroelectronics I debugged a customer's traction motor inverter with Lauterbach JTAG hardware, diagnosed and fixed DC bus instability, and built an STM32 proximity-sensing system end to end.
Raven is where it converges. It's a tilt-rotor eVTOL I designed and printed in carbon-fiber composite, the first airframe of a planned 4-drone autonomous swarm, and the flagship hardware of the stealth AI hardware startup I founded. FAA Part 107 certification is in progress.

02 / The thesis
The same stack that ships a 400-volt race car flies an autonomous aircraft.
Cells, busbars, BMS, motor drives, CAN, sensor chains, vehicle control. The work I do on FSAE tractive systems and traction inverters at STMicroelectronics is the same engineering that powers eVTOL propulsion, swarm coordination, and aerospace-grade power electronics. Raven is the proof: an 8-stage roadmap from a single tilt-rotor airframe to a 4-drone autonomous swarm.
