Design Experience
My most significant designing experience occurred throughout my job at the ECE Research lab at UBC where I was tasked with designing, sourcing and constructing a device to assist in the process of scanning for prostate cancer. This required rigorous 3D modelling in SolidWorks and in drawings. In my most recent job, my work was focused more towards designing experiments in order to prove the field efficiency of the company's newest X-PRIZE winning technology and this involved lots of planning, preparation and trial runs to ensure all experiments were valid and ran smoothly. During my first year at Queen's I was also a member of the Hyperloop Design Team which ended up going to SpaceX for the final round of the competition; my design work on the team included the design and sourcing of roller wheels which kept the pod from shifting too much during it's run as well as a transport mechanism for when the pod was not in use. My other design work includes semester-long projects in APSC 200 - P2 and MECH 323; in APSC 200 - P2 I designed and built a mechanical arm to assist disabled people in wheelchairs to use a camera and in MECH 323 I used theory taught in class to design and build a gearbox which was then placed in a small car, and ran through multiple tests to determine the power delivery capabilities of the gearbox.
