Hello, my name is Joshua Basso, and I’m honored to serve as the Chair of the IEEE USF Student Branch. I’m currently a senior at the University of South Florida, pursuing a degree in Electrical Engineering with specializations in Energy, Power, and Sustainability, as well as Mechatronics.

Since joining IEEE in 2022, I’ve had the opportunity to grow within the organization, first as the Electrathon Chair, and now as Chair. Throughout my time here, I’ve seen the incredible impact that a well-run engineering organization can have, and I’m committed to taking that even further.

This year, my vision is to reinvigorate IEEE at USF and shape it into a more effective, accessible, and career-focused organization. That means expanding outreach, hosting more transparent and engaging events, and building meaningful partnerships with leading companies and professionals.

My goal is to ensure that every student who engages with IEEE walks away with the skills, connections, and confidence to take the next step in their career whether that’s landing an internship, securing a job, or simply finding their place in the world of engineering.

I’m excited for what’s ahead, and I look forward to growing together with all of you.

Hello, my name is Nathan and I am proud to serve as the IEEE Vice Chair for this school year. I am a senior studying Business Management but have been involved with IEEE at USF since my freshman year.

My goal is to create a supportive environment that allows our team to bond and deliver an inspiring message to the student body. I plan to create relations with all board members and also any students that have interest in the student chapter. My hope is to make  everyone smile and have them take something away from the work we do.

I am excited to meet everyone, and help you learn more about IEEE and how get involved, GO BULLS

As the Secretary of the USF IEEE, I am dedicated to keeping our organization running smoothly by maintaining accurate records, managing communications, and ensuring compliance with University and IEEE guidelines. I document meetings, update our membership roster, post event calendars to keep our members informed and engaged, and book rooms for events. By collaborating with the Executive Committee, I help support event planning and branch operations.

Hey, my name is Daniel Parker and I'm from Lakeland, FL. I'm a senior here at USF majoring in electrical engineering doing power and nano. I'm excited to fulfill my responsibilities as the treasurer for IEEE. I deal with managing the budget and allocating funds to each of our clubs. I've been involved with IEEE since my freshman year, especially with Electrathon. I hope to help foster a great environment for our members and help the club grow! If you have any questions, feel free to reach out at ieeeusftreasurer@gmail.com 

Hi, my name is Grayton and I am from St. Augustine, FL. A little bit about me is that and I am a senior Electrical Engineering major specializing in Mechatronics and Power. I have been involved in the organization since Fall 2022, and I am excited to serve as this year's fundraising chair. My main role in the IEEE organization is to set us up financially by acquiring funds to support the organization and its members. I also am in charge of ordering and ensuring laboratory kits are in supply. If you have any questions or fundraising ideas, please do not hesitate to reach out. I look forward to working with everyone and making this a successful year. Thank you for the opportunity of allowing me to serve you, and as always, Go Bulls!

Hey, my name is Abdul Jabbar, and I am a senior majoring in Electrical Engineering at the University of South Florida with a focus in Mechatronics and Micro and Nano systems. As the Professional Development Chair of IEEE USF, I am dedicated to helping our members bridge the gap between academic learning and industry expectations. My role focuses on organizing workshops, networking events, industry panels, resume reviews, and technical skill-building sessions that empower students to grow professionally and confidently step into their careers. By collaborating with faculty, companies, and alumni, I aim to create opportunities that expose students to emerging technologies, career pathways in electrical engineering, and best practices in job preparation. Whether you're looking to improve your resume, sharpen your interview skills, or connect with professionals in your field, IEEE USF is here to support your journey beyond the classroom.

Salutations,

I'm a senior majoring in Electrical Engineering with a focus on mechatronics, microelectronics and IoT systems. When I'm not pulling another all nighter, I'm drawing. I plan to expand the scope of what Electrathon does in the hopes of introducing more opportunities for growth and learning. Historically, our electrical system has been designed to supply power to our motor controller and motor. From model toothpicks to designing with SolidWorks & Simulations, I'm actively finding ways to transform our assembly process to reflect technical skills found in the Automotive Industry. However, we have begun designing and developing our secondary power system to support our new smart systems which will include: 

➕Master Control Unit                                      ➕Stereo System

➕Telecommunications ➕Security System.

➕Proximity Sensors ➕Lighting Control

I'm excited to announce that I'm developing our marketing team to promote our social presence and to secure sponsors. We are actively researching new power supply technologies, chemical engineers that means we have a place for you as well.

If there are questions, feel free to reach out

Hey, my name is Eun, and I’m a junior majoring in Electrical Engineering at USF with a focus in Mechatronics and Wireless Systems. As the VEX Robotics Chair, I lead BULL 1, a team of dedicated builders and engineers with a shared goal: to design and build competitive robots that push the limits of what's possible in VRC (Vex Robotics Competition). Since our founding in 2020, we’ve competed across the country at university-level tournaments and at VEX Worlds in Dallas, and we’ve even hosted major events like the 2023 Florida West Coast State Championship. Each season, we build two robots from the ground up—strategizing, designing, and refining with one mission in mind: to out-engineer the competition. My role includes guiding the entire development process—from concept to competition—and supporting our team members as they grow into creative, capable engineers. I’m proud to be part of a team that not only aims to innovate in every match but also works to inspire the next generation of robotics leaders.

Hello, I'm a developer and maker who enjoys working across both hardware and software. My projects often blend embedded systems, simple graphical interfaces, and physical controls to create practical, interactive tools. I’m comfortable moving between low-level programming and higher-level application development, always looking for ways to make things efficient, user-friendly, and reliable. 

Hey, my name is Adrian, and I am an Electrical Engineering student here at the University of South Florida. My focus regarding my degree is on Mechatronics and Micro and Nano systems. As the Workshops Chair of IEEE, I design, plan, and deliver the many workshops our club hosts throughout the semester. I am also working with a few students to create a more in-depth and complex system to show off at EXPO. If you need help to get your project off the ground, support (advise, components, and/or equipment), or anything regarding our club that someone else has yet to get back to you on, reach out to me on Discord or by email.
