Projects
|
Group project based on sampling and study of an ECG
signal via a single amplification circuit and software
filtering and analysis systems. This required good
communication between team members to ensure all work was
accomplished within the specification. My role was to design
and implement the software filtering system using Lab View.
Individual
project involved development and construction of a
Controller Area Network (CAN) based system suitable for
demonstrating the fundamentals of CANBus from an automotive
perspective. I achieved a 2:1 grade
Electronics
prize for a project to build a Digital Heart Rate meter

Interests

I was vice captain of the university hockey team. This
involved organizing squads, training sessions and
competitions.
While at school
I took part in many group activities the most important of
which was the Young Enterprise Scheme. This scheme
involved working in a group to manage and run a successful
company and produce a viable product. The chosen product was a
magazine which was demonstrated and sold at a nearby shopping
centre.
When in
the Scouts, I was in charge of a group of 5 younger
scouts. Scouts provided me with a variety of life skills
including first aid and survival skills, but also gave me
responsibility and leadership over groups of others at a young
age.
Member of the
