Project Lead & Instructor

As a Technical Project Lead and Instructor for the Developing Breakthrough Projects course, I was responsible for guiding a cohort of over 20 undergraduate students through three semester-long product development cycles. The program focused on bridging the gap between theoretical engineering concepts and practical, hands-on application in machine learning, data science, and robotics.

Role & Responsibilities

• Instructor: My primary role was to serve as the technical expert and mentor for student teams. This involved designing curriculum, leading weekly workshops, and providing one-on-one guidance to help students scope, build, and present functional prototypes.
• System Development: Developed full-stack software for multi-robot platforms, focusing on real-time control, multimodal sensor (image, audio) processing, and web-based orchestration.
• Technical Presentations: Delivered advanced presentations on robotics and AI to diverse audiences, including graduate researchers and faculty.
