A fourth-year mechanical engineering major at Boston University who loves to build — from the wind tunnel I built as a child to 2.5-DOF systems, speed-controlled carts, and sensor-driven prototypes. Fly through the workshop to see.
Aerospace was my first interest — my grandfather worked for Pan American Airlines and my aunt at Tinker Air Force Base, so airplanes were a recurring part of my life. It pushed me toward science early, because I wanted to understand how flight works and the forces behind it. By fifth and sixth grade I was the first and only student in my school's aircraft club, and in sixth grade I built my own wind tunnel and tested airfoils purely out of curiosity.
Through middle and high school I took every engineering class I could and spent years learning CAD and 3D modeling. As I look toward Summer 2027 Job Oppurtunties, I'm driven by that same mix of curiosity and hands-on building — and the excitement I felt the first time I watched air move through that wind tunnel.
Keep flying — first up is my live project blog, then eight builds floating ahead. Each opens as you approach; click a panel to open its full page.
Ongoing updates from my senior design project — progress, setbacks, design decisions, and what I'm learning as the work happens. Updated live, straight from the bench.
A 2.5-DOF vending machine integrating mechanical and electrical subsystems for controlled motion, with custom joint mechanisms optimized for load, accuracy, and manufacturability.
Travel ten feet and return without tipping a 12×1×1 in bar. Applied kinematic modeling to optimize acceleration, velocity, and wheel radius, then validated the simulation against physical testing.
A contactless soap dispenser with a sensor-driven actuator, modular waterproof housing, and optimized ergonomics. Led mechanical design and supported circuit integration.
Open Project Page →An Arduino-based temperature monitor with real-time alerts (LED, buzzer, LCD) for out-of-range conditions. Handled wiring, enclosure design, code, and validation.
Open Project Page →A dig-box enrichment system for a three-banded armadillo — improving accessibility and durability to support natural foraging behavior and visitor engagement. Prototyped, milled, and 3D printed.
Open Project Page →A cost-optimized truss designed with computational analysis to maximize strength and minimize bending, then built and tested as a 31-inch prototype that met every load and design constraint.
Open Project Page →A four-bar linkage analyzed to determine torque requirements and bearing reaction forces across different crank angles and speeds — modeled and simulated in SolidWorks.
Open Project Page →A four-bar mechanism designed to move a trash tray without tipping — geometry worked out in Math Illustrator and validated with a full motion study in SolidWorks.
Open Project Page →Current summer internship — site visits, drafting, and hands-on engineering support across active projects. Also learning Revit and AutoCAD.
Led reconciliation of EFT discrepancies and denial-management workflows; automated 835 processing and clearinghouse tracking to improve accuracy and reduce delays.
High-volume front-desk operations and customer support; recognized twice as Employee of the Month.
