About

Hello, and welcome to my personal website! Here you will find info about the various engineering projects I’m working on. I’m using this for two purposes: 1) a fun way to document my progress and 2) a place where other people can find info to help them out. I’m passionate about teaching others and making engineering/STEM more accessible & easier to learn. As such, I’m a firm supporter & user of open-source software and right-to-repair.

Academically, I graduated from the University of Illinois Chicago in May 2024 with a Bachelor’s in Mechanical Engineering. The experience which shaped me the most by a long shot was founding our school’s FSAE Electric team by converting one of our old Baja cars from ICE to EV (see photo above). In addition, I did undergraduate research in the Hemley Lab where I studied the elastic & structural properties of the Viton copolymer under high (Gigapascal) pressures.

Outside of engineering, I am an avid drummer & percissionist. My favorite genres are fusion metal (Bloodywood, anyone?), math rock (Plini, Polyphia), and bands that are just weird in general (TOOL, KGLW)

Thanks for stopping by, and happy reading!
