Dylan's Internship Portfolio

Welcome to my portfolio! My name is Dylan Pravia and I am a high school student, soon to become senior with a passion in engineering, programming, and design. Ever since I was little, I had the interest and the goal to become a future industrial engineer or electrical engineer and dive into computer science which has always been one of my passions. I am currently taking an internship with Miami EdTech to dive deeper in the world of computer science and this is where I will include my journey and everything I will learn.

Prior Engineering Work

This is one of the projects I've made in Digital Electronics in junior year. The large and messy circuit with all the chips, wires, and resistors everywhere is a Date of Birth displayer. As the inputs count from 0 to 7 (000 to 111 in binary), the outputs (a-g) on the seven-segment display shows my date of birth. This is one of the projects I am proud of as it was my first big project in Digital Electronics and I managed to complete it. There was a lot of work behind it though, I had to use truth tables with inputs X, Y, and Z and the outputs A-G on the seven-segment display, in order to get the output of the truth table which would be my birthday. Then we K-mapped every segment of the display individually to get a simplified expression which can be used to create a rough draft of the circuit. We took each circuit and combined them to their specific segments in the display's inputs. There was a lot of trial and error and it was definitely a struggle to complete this one.

I have prior experience making circuits and working with computers like Arduino.

I have prior experience with programming languages such as C++ to make projects with Arduino.
