About Me
Full stack roboticist working across fabrication, embedded systems, and industrial robot programming, with a specialty in lateral innovation: taking tools and methods that already exist and building them into workflows that lacked them. The clearest proof is bringing an ABB Robotics service office into a more AI-forward way of working: delivering the division's AI training, driving internal AI assistant adoption across the team, and standing up a shared knowledge-vault system for team context. I graduate May 2027 with a BS in Robotics Engineering from ASU and I am interviewing now for full-time robotics, automation, and AI-integration roles. Singapore citizen, H-1B1 eligible: no lottery, no cap pressure, so the hiring process works like hiring a domestic candidate.
Projects
RobotDraw
SVG-to-RAPID converter for six-axis ABB industrial robots. A Python and Flask tool that turns vector artwork into readable RAPID drawing programs with safe lift and traversal moves, then estimates run time. Hardware-validated on an IRB 1100 across five drawings, including one of roughly 3,000 strokes.
Yumi TTS
Voice-driven control for a physical ABB YuMi (IRB 14000). A fully local wake-word speech pipeline parses a spoken command, confirms it, and dispatches it over a socket protocol to RAPID on the robot. Running on the physical arm, backed by 44 green Python tests.
Water Opacity Sensor
PIC-based optical sensor PCB measuring fluid clarity via light intensity.
Experience
Engineering Intern
ABB Robotics
- Programmed Delta, SCARA, 4-axis, and 6-axis robots in RAPID across RobotStudio and live controller environments, covering motion planning, WorkObject and TCP calibration, digital I/O, and multi-robot coordination.
- Performed QC testing, functional verification, and shipment inspection on ABB industrial robots; conducted hands-on preventative maintenance including oil changes on live systems.
- Independently developed RobotDraw, a Python/Flask tool converting SVG files to ABB RAPID programs using WorkObject-based plane calibration & automated path generation; validated via 5596-stroke programs in RobotStudio.
