As a seasoned DSP engineer with over 7 years of experience, I have honed my skills to not only troubleshoot existing problems but also to innovate new solutions whenever the need arises. From my early days as a student to my current role as an Engineer at WNC, I've consistently applied the foundational skills I acquired to analyze and solve complex challenges.

My expertise extends beyond algorithm development and signal processing; I actively contribute to the design and optimization of integrated systems, performing key duties in system engineering. My involvement in link budget analysis ensures the seamless operation and optimal performance of communication systems.

Having patented two novel ideas—one granted and another pending—I am committed to pushing the boundaries of innovation. While my journey has been rooted in DSP, my interest in data science and machine learning has led me to pursue MOOC certifications in these domains. Although I haven't had the opportunity to apply these certifications in a professional setting, I am eager to transition and contribute my skills to the dynamic field of data science and machine learning.

I am enthusiastic about collaborating with professionals in this evolving field, sharpening my knowledge, and actively contributing to impactful projects. My goal is to leverage my diverse skill set, combining DSP expertise with data science and machine learning, to become proficient and make meaningful contributions to this exciting intersection.
