David Calixte

Originally from Haiti, I am a senior electrical engineering student at UMass Boston. I am passionate about electricity, which is why I decided to return to school after dropping out to pursue a dream I have carried with me since childhood: studying electrical engineering. Here at the University of Massachusetts, my team and I are currently researching combining Radio frequency and Optical Wireless signals into a single system to create a multi-agent reinforcement learning system that can maintain efficient communication in unreliable environments. I am working on the sensing subsystem, where I built the program that allows agents to scan their environment within the system. Aside from my academic activities, the gym is one of my favorite places. I love making friends and listening to music in my free time; however, above all, I prefer staying busy.”
