WORK EXPERIENCE

Innovative Solutions International (ISI), Vienna, VA

• Analysis of CNS/ATM to facilitate Data link communications between aircraft and air traffic control
• Technical Manual Development
ENGINEERING EXPERIENCE
College Senior Design Project
• Designed and tested a Mid-Range Laser Scanner that detects objects & obstacles within its range and
maps the road for indoor as well as outdoor navigation.

Filter Design and Frequency Response

• Successfully completed a frequency characterization study of systems and signals as low-pass, high-
pass, band-pass, or band-reject using a MATLAB simulation.

Multi-Stage Amplifier Project
