Interests

Career

Focusing on bridging mechanical and electrical engineering, I’m passionate about developing, applying, and/or managing technologies that exist in the broad realm of engineering. My goal is to work on projects that address real-world challenges, and with real-world impact. I value approaches grounded in historical precedent, empirical testing, and lived engineering experience—recognizing that innovation is strongest when it builds on what’s been tried, tested, and refined. I invite collaboration and leveraging collective expertise to guide research and design efforts, and working cross-functionally to complete projects and drive solutions.

Social

Engaging with individuals from diverse backgrounds and experiences, I aim to broaden my worldview and develop a deeper understanding of different perspectives and cultures. These interactions not only offer an opportunity for personal growth, but they also provide invaluable insights that can shape my approach to problem-solving, creativity, and collaboration.
