I'm Malik, a programmer based in Houston, TX. I am currently a student at the University of Houston pursuing a degree in Computer Science and Computer Engineering.
My interest in technology stems from its ability to be used as more than just entertainment, but rather a tool that can improve human well-being. I intend to apply my knowledge in computer science and microelectronics to unique fields such as education, healthcare, and space exploration, and to push the boundaries of what is currently possible
Here are some technologies I've been working with recently:
Upcoming Project
Currently I'm designing and working on a 3D printed Rover. The goal for project is to have the rover navigate autonomously using Nvidia's Jetson Nano computer running the Robotic Operating System known as ROS.
Upcoming Project
A fullstack medical database group project for our database systems class. This project features a web portal for a health provider company that allows patients to schedule and cancel appointments with doctors. The database keeps track of patient information as well as information about the Medical clinic itself.

Software Project
Pomo-Grow is a pomodoro timer web app that I built to showcase some of my new web development skills. The Pomodoro Technique is a time management method that is used to break work up into timed intervals. I found myself using other pomodoro timers and I thought it would be fun to create my own.
Electronics Project
This project was my first take on a fully 3D Printed prosthetic hand. The thumb is apposable and each of the fingers are fully actuated using servo motors and elastic nylon cord. Just like prosthetics today, the arm has five pre-programmed hand positions using the Arduino Nano.
Electronics Project
The LED Music Visualizer is capable of displaying real-time animations using a strip of programmable LED's. This project uses an Arduino Uno paired with a SparkFun spectrum shield which splits incoming audio signals into seven different frequencies. These frequencies are then processed by the Arduino and are then displayed onto the LED Strip.
Electronics Project
This project is a basic home security system powered by the Arduino Uno. To access the system the user must enter their correct password. Once accessed, the user can activate the system's alarm, change their password, or configure the system's settings. When armed, if the deviec detect any motion the alarm will be triggered.
Electronics Project
A Useless Machine or sometimes called a Do Nothing Machine powered by the Arduino microcontroller. My take on the Useless features many different animations that the device randomly cycles through.
