Surgical Robotics Intern

Amphia Hospital, Netherlands

  • Attended over 20 surgical procedures, including more than 15 robot-assisted operations using the Da Vinci surgical robot alongside Dr. J.H. Wijsman, MD – Attending Surgeon (GI & Oncologic Surgery)
  • Practiced robotic simulations alongside live clinical workflows on the Da Vinci surgical robot, under the guidance of Dr. P. Gobardhan, MD – Attending Surgeon (GI & Oncologic Surgery)
  • Contributed to early discussions on future haptic feedback integration in surgical robotics with Dr. P. Gobardhan, MD – Attending Surgeon
  • Gained hands-on exposure to human-robot interaction in high-stakes clinical environments

Community Incentive Program

Designed and implemented a scalable incentive system exchanging food for a trash bag of collected waste in Epukukiro, Namibia. Achieved sustained removal of over 50 trash bags of garbage per collection day. With 2 collection days per week, we supplied hundreds of people with food while continuously keeping the streets of the township clean. Demonstrated systems design, behavioral modeling, and large-scale real-world impact.

The farm, orphanage – Gordons Bay, South Africa

Ongoing family-led project establishing an orphanage in Gordons Bay to support children transitioning off the streets into stable family environments. Contributed to technical coordination, hands-on operational support, and website development. Project includes on-site volunteers, a community knitting workshop, and the development of a farm-based kitchen. Led in close coordination with me and my parents, including a permanent on-site presence of my sister.

Happie — Consumer Application

Single-handedly designed and developed a full-stack application for meal and event planning for students and families. Implemented backend infrastructure, data handling, and user flows. Application is finalized and entering the App Store release phase.
