Hi, I'm Aiden.
I am an ambitious high school senior interested in Robotics, Computer Science, and Engineering.
Thanks for visiting my site! Unfortunately, I have not yet optimized this site for mobile users. You can try to view it here, or switch to desktop for the best viewing experience.
About Me
I am a high school student at the Post Oak School.
I am interested in Robotics, Computer Science, Engineering, and Entrepreneurship.
My goal is to follow my interests while lifting up everyone around me for a better collective future.
Currently working on multipule STEM Projects: Arduino robotics, Woodworking, 3-D Design Modeling, and more.
In my free time I enjoy bicycling, keeping things organized, and invention-video games.

- Worked with a team of 6 to design and build a Computer Science and Robotics based project
- Learned valuable teamwork skills
- Learned low-level coding on an arduino-like custom motherboard
- Worked with a team to create a brand: Practical Planet & release first product, a portable cutlery set
- Learned entrepreneurship, how to set goals, and how to present design ideas
- Learned 3D modeling in product design and the price-complexity-utility relationship in product design
- Worked with a team to create and manufacture a real-life product
- Practiced marketing and product awareness through marketing product to reach production quota
- Gave back to the greater cause of reducing plastic waste by donating 25% of each sale
- Proposed and developed two two-week intensive learning courses for my school
- Designed and co-taught Compute a Computer, a two-week intensive course focused on teaching Computer Science and Robotics through PC design
- Designed Italy Architecture and Culture, a two-week intensive course on architecture and history of Rome, Italy to learn about it's unique engineering and the history behind it
- Founded my school's woodworking club, also known as woodworking commitee for it's community Service
- Working to improve my school through community woodworking projects
- One of the biggest and most consistent clubs at Post Oak

Aceable Driving Simulator
Aceable Driving Simulator Aceable Driving Simulator is a Javascript-based 2D simulator I built for the driving instruction company Aceable during my internship there for my IB Computer Science IA. It uses principles I learned in Math and Physics in order to accurately convey a 2D version of reality, from the vehicle’s turn radius to stopping distance to acceleration velocity.
My objective is to give Aceable students the opportunity to practice driving, parking, and obeying traffic laws using their knowledge from Aceable’s online course before they drive out on the road for the first time.

Gala Project
The Gala Project is a Computer Science and Robotics project done for my school's Gala event. I worked with a team of 6 to complete it in just a few months.
The project is a wooden 3D printed light array that uses a custom motherboard to control light animations. My role in the team was to modify a version of the operating system WLED MoonModules to suit the purposes of the group and the project, and then flash the modified operating system onto our motherboard.
The project is not complete yet, but this website will be updated with a picture and more details when it is! Completion date: March 2024

School Picnic Tables
I started this project at my school as the leader of woodworking club. It was a 8-month long project where we engineered, 3d designed, tested, and then built a series of picnic tables to fit in our school's budget and design standards.

Entrepreneurship, Buisness, Engineering / Enviorment
Practical Planet - Portable Cutlery
Practical Planet was an entrepenuership project I did during an internship with Original Nations, where I worked with them to design a portable cutlery set to help save the enviorment during the high plastic cutlery usage of the Covid-19 pandemic.
I marketed the product and raised awareness in order to reach my order goal, and the product was successfully manufactured and shipped to 35 people.
Computer Science, Physics / Games / Python
Pong Physics
This is a project I did for my Computer Science class in which I took an assignment to code pong and took it my own way.
The end product closely resembeled the original pong game, but had a slew of features as well as realistic collision physics (minus friction and air resistance), treating the puck as an inelastic object.
You can download the Python code or run the game on the GitHub: https://github.com/N0madical/Pong

Mini-Projects
During my time at high school I've built a variety of Computer Science projects that make use of aspects of physics and engineering, as well as general skills.
