I distinguish myself based on my ability to solve problems for which I have had minimal prior training or experience as demonstrated through innovations in electrical, mechanical, and software engineering; my most significant contributions include a patent-pending Phase Shifting Commutation technique, which provides a drastic simplification over current BLDC motor commutation algorithms, as well as inventions for controllable-pitch fans/propellers. I have generated several novel controls and diagnostic algorithms for dynamic systems that are employed in industry as well as software architectures for interfacing with them.
