About

Mechanical engineering, from concept to tested hardware.

I am a Duke University alum with a degree in Mechanical Engineering and certificates in Aerospace Engineering and Innovation & Entrepreneurship.

I am an incoming Mechanical Engineer at Anduril in Costa Mesa, CA.

My work spans aerospace systems, structural analysis, aerodynamics, additive manufacturing, and nanotechnology research.

I enjoy designing and building systems that bridge physical engineering and analysis softwares.
