Summary

Over the past four years of studying Electrical and Electronic Engineering, I have gained hands-on experience with a variety of industry-relevant software and technologies. For instance, I used Siemens TIA Portal V17 to program PLCs for controlling a conveyor belt as part of a coursework project. Additionally, I worked with Trimble and Relux to design the cabling installation for an outlet mall and create lighting layouts for individual rooms.

Beyond these, I have also gained proficiency in Proteus, C programming, MATLAB, LabVIEW, and MikroC Pro. Currently in my third year of university, I am actively seeking a summer internship to apply my knowledge in a real-world setting and gain valuable industry experience before graduation.
