Leading and executing
technology that matters.
I'm Connor, an Eagle Scout in the Honors Robotics Program at UT Austin, passionate about leading impactful technology through firmware and hardware development.
Vibrotactile Band
Teaching Large Motor Skills
A low-cost wearable armband that uses targeted vibrational feedback to help users learn large motor skills. Built for the HERO Lab at Texas Robotics. Designed to make haptic-assisted learning accessible outside the lab using modular hardware customized through computer vision software.
Firmware and Python library for robust haptic serial communication. Increased reliablity by providing 100% error detection at 100Hz.
Crowdsourced astronomy and light pollution mapping app. Won 1st place out of 5,000 participants at HackTX 2025 with AR, ML, and a live pollution database.
Two-jointed arm that draws images using inverse kinematics. Built as a research instrument for an academic study on AI creativity bias at UT Austin.
Verified Discord bot with 10,000+ users across 150 servers. Built to keep tabletop gaming communities rolling during the pandemic.
Drag-and-drop digital logic gate simulator in Godot. Interactive circuit design tool built to make Boolean algebra tangible for students.
More than circuits:
the human side of me.
When I'm not building robots, I'm usually outside, moving, or making something for fun. I love pickup soccer, long walks around Austin with a playlist on, and hunting down the next coffee spot worth becoming a regular at.
I also like storytelling through photos and short journal-style posts. This part of my life keeps me grounded, curious, and creative, and it gives me better perspective when I come back to harder technical work.
present
Building the Haplink communication framework for haptic devices and developing a vibrotactile armband for motor skill learning. Improved reliability with 100% error detection, 13-byte packets at 100Hz. Worked under Dr. Ross Neuman.
present
Creating a long-term project program to develop hardware for IT Bridge, a nonprofit teaching underprivileged youth about electrical engineering careers. Planned and executed events for the full chapter.
2025
Selected as 1 of 4 youth in the Houston area for the highest youth role in Scouting's premier leadership program. Led a 25-person staff to deliver a week-long leadership intensive for 60 handpicked participants.
2025
Established a studio of programmers, artists, and writers to develop and publish Discord bots and games. Grew Fireball Dice Roller to 10,000+ users across 150 servers. Delivered private bots for clients and built community on social media.
Let's build something
that that changes the world.
I'm always open to research collaborations, internship opportunities, and interesting projects. If you're working on something cool, please reach out and lets make a difference (or just make a sick robot).
