SUMMARY

Electrical and electronics engineering student in South Australia, completing
an Associate Degree in Electronics Engineering at TAFE SA and articulating to a
Bachelor of Electrical and Electronic Engineering at Adelaide University,
expected 2028. I am building toward graduate electrical engineering work across
power, embedded systems, controls, UAV systems, manufacturing, DFMA, and
verification. My strongest evidence combines standards-informed power-system
coursework, solar manufacturing exposure, practical electronics projects, and
technical documentation.

  SA Power Networks TS132/TS133, AS1100 technical drawing, GD&T, single-line
  diagrams, wiring schedules, drawing and specification review.
- CAD and design: AutoCAD, Autodesk Inventor, Fusion 360, KiCAD.
- Instrumentation and analysis: multimeter, oscilloscope, function generator,
  LTSpice, Logisim.
- Programming and embedded systems: Python, MATLAB, C, ROS 2,
  Arduino/Espressif IDE, ESP and AVR microcontrollers, MAVLink telemetry.
- Manufacturing and quality: 5S, Kaizen, Root Cause Analysis, 8D
  problem-solving, inspections, soldering, 3D printing, MS Office.

EXPERIENCE

Production Worker - Tindo Solar
Nov 2025 - Present

- Work on the production line of an Australian solar-panel manufacturer within
  a Kaizen and 5S continuous-improvement culture.
- Shadowed engineers applying Root Cause Analysis and 8D processes to diagnose
  and resolve equipment faults, building practical exposure to quality,
  process reliability, and fault-finding.
- Developed a stronger understanding of how renewable-energy hardware depends
  on manufacturing constraints, operator work, documentation, inspection, and
  supply-chain reality.

Kitchen Supervisor - Plus 82 Pocha
Aug 2022 - Aug 2025

- Led a back-of-house team of 5 through 200-300 covers per night, resolving
  operational issues quickly enough to maintain about a 10-minute order
  turnaround.
- Maintained stock control using Excel and ERP/MRP tools.
- Trained new hires to competency within 3 months while building respectful
  working relationships across the kitchen and front-of-house team.

PROJECT EVIDENCE

Solar Farm Grid Connection and Commercial Electrical Design - TAFE SA

- Authored a technical report on connecting a 1 MW solar farm to the SA Power
  Networks distribution grid, assessing LV versus HV connection under SAPN
  TS132/TS133.
- Checked reactive-power control, Volt-VAr response, frequency ride-through,
  anti-islanding, and harmonic limits against AS/NZS 4777.2.
- Designed a low-voltage cable and protection system for a four-tenancy
  commercial complex to AS/NZS 3000 and AS/NZS 3008.1.1.
- Sized 35 mm2 consumer mains for a 123.6 A demand, held total voltage drop to
  <=3.4% against a 5% limit, and verified 9.2 kA prospective fault current and
  AS/NZS 3000 Table 8.1 earth-fault-loop impedance in a compliance matrix.

GPS-Denied Autonomous UAV - Current TAFE SA capstone

- Architecting an autonomous quadcopter that holds position without GPS using
  onboard visual-inertial odometry, with optical-flow/rangefinder fallback and
  staged verification before flight claims.
- Planning obstacle detection through stereo-depth perception and local
  replanning with D* Lite running through ROS 2 on a Raspberry Pi companion
  computer.
- Partitioned the system into functional layers with simulation-first testing
  in ArduPilot SITL and Gazebo, binary pass/fail gates, and mandatory manual
  override.

Multi-purpose Environmental Monitoring Station

- Designed wiring schematics for 240 V to 24 V conversion and 5 V distribution
  in AutoCAD, applying AS/NZS 3000 and electrical design practice.
- Developed a 2-layer Raspberry Pi HAT PCB in KiCAD using I2C internal sensors
  and Modbus RTU over RS485 for external sensors, with SPICE simulation plus
  ERC/DRC checks.
- Designed an IP66 enclosure and DIN-rail layout in Autodesk Inventor using
  DFMA, documented to AS1100 and GD&T.

ESP32 Drone and 3D-Printed RC Car

- Established MAVLink telemetry between an ESP32 drone and a ground-control
  station.
- Designed parametric PET-CF drone airframes intended for 5 m drop survival
  while optimising toward a 3:1 thrust-to-weight ratio.
- Built a 3D-printed RWD RC car reaching about 30 km/h on asphalt.
- Designed a PWM motor speed controller for a 1000 KV BLDC motor on a 3S LiPo
  using LM324 op-amps and BC547 transistors.
- Manufactured PLA-CF, PETG, and TPU parts to about +/-0.1 mm by tuning the
  printer and design decisions to material technical data sheets.

EDUCATION

Associate Degree in Electronics Engineering - TAFE SA
Final year

Bachelor of Electrical and Electronic Engineering - Adelaide University
