Research
Representation of Braille Characters and Graphical Patterns using Dynamic Tactile Displays
The overall goal of this project is to integrate braille and graphics on the same platform, using a small dynamic tactile grid. This project will characterize user acceptability of a dynamic tactile system when the braille or graphical patterns are presented in a personalized manner.

I am a Sophomore Computer Engineering major with an Analytics minor. My expected graduation date in Spring 2024. In my massive amount of free time, I enjoy playing a bunch of different sports, including: Baseball, Soccer, Volleyball, and Golf. I am excited to work with my peers on this FMCW radio project to further my education.
