I am a recent graduate from the University of Calgary. I have a background as a Journeyman Electrician with nearly a decade of experience industrial automation and controls. In my spare time I enjoy biking, guitar, gardening, DIY projects, and watching cheesy '80/'90s action movies.
Projects
Drillbotics Team (2023-2024)
2nd Place in International Drilling Automation Competition
Description
As Co-team Lead for the University of Calgary Drillbotics Team, I helped my team in the development of a new control logic scheme for our drilling rig, working with equipment inherited from previous teams. I coordinated efforts across multiple engineering disciplines to develop and implement a workable solution in time for the competition deadline. While my primary focus was on the rig's logic controls, my industrial experience proved valuable in addressing various technical challenges and filling crucial skill gaps within our team. This project helped provide ample opportunities for my team and I to further develop our troubleshooting skills and to explore skills in new unrelated fields. I am proud of the work we accomplished and the skills we all developed together as a team. I look forward to applying these skills in future projects.
