Hi everyone,
I really want to come up with a creative introduction but my mind is not in its creative zone right now so I will go with simple this morning…
My name is Shalaleh and I am a third year mechanical engineering student and I am taking the mechatronics option. Currently I am doing my co-op term at a company called Cellula Robotics at New Westminister. They specialize is submarine engineering and excavation. I have been interested in robotics after I got involved with Thunderbird robotics in first year but undersea is a whole new world.
As you probably know I will be your mentor during this project and from my perspective I will explore the project with you and have conversations with you about the direction of the project, it’s implication, it’s practicality and etc. I am a very open person and enjoy discussions so please from now on do not hesitate to just start a conversation with me about anything that bugs your mind.
For your information, my involvement with CSL mostly started when I took the MECH 410E/P and got to complete a CSL project and an international service learning project in Mexico. I really enjoyed these two courses and learned quite a bit from it which is why I decided to be involved with more CSL projects. I am really excited that we are working with Tetra society since they have been really supportive of the CSL initiative at UBC and are great people to work with.
And finally, I am really sorry I could not make it to the meet and greet session. It was definitely one of the sessions I did not want to miss but I had to because of my co-op term. I will make sure that my co-op job does not hinder my involvedment with this project and for that I would really appreciate your collaberation.
My e-mail is shalaleh.rismani@gmail.com. Please cc me in the e-mails that you thinkĀ I should be cc’d in. I would also like to meet you guys as soon as possible. Let me know when would be a good time for you and we can arrange something (over e-mail).
Looking forward to working together on this project,
Shalaleh
