About Me

I am a Mechatronics Engineering student in my 6th semester at Ibero Puebla. I’m passionate about the intersection of mechanical design and electronics. When I’m not in the lab, I’m likely immersed in the world of video games, I’m a huge Dark Souls fan and a firm believer that the 'git gud' mindset applies perfectly to solving complex engineering problems.

Previous work

I focus on hands-on learning through prototyping. My experience ranges from structural design to human-computer interaction. I enjoy the process of trial and error, always looking for ways to optimize my designs and learn from technical constraints.

Projects I am proud of

Mini CNC Machine: Designed and assembled a functional small-scale CNC, focusing on precision motion control and motor synchronization.
MDF Robotic Arm: Developed a robotic arm using MDF for the structure, integrating servos and custom programming to handle basic pick-and-place tasks.
Autonomous Maze-Solving Robot: Developed an autonomous vehicle capable of navigating and solving mazes. I was responsible for the full-stack development: designing the mechanical structure, routing the custom PCB, and implementing the algorithm logic to ensure efficient navigation.
