More about me
I have loved camping and nature, ever since I was a cub scout, making my own adventures in the woods at Camp Oljato. My favorite nature spot is Yosemite National Park.
I have been an avid runner since elementary school, and enjoy doing fun runs that student organizations at Northwestern hold. Most recently I ran the Chicago Half Marathon!
Being a Peer Adviser and mentoring 10 new engineering students every year has been one of the most rewarding experiences during my time at Northwestern.
I also build websites, a side-business I began my senior year of high school and have continued since.
Featured Projects
Fountain Flex
Using Human-Centered design principles to improve a user’s water bottle filling experience. The Fountain Flex is a light low-profile sleeve and funnel that allows users to easily fill water bottles at any sink or fountain.
Created 3D printed molds to create a flexible silicon part. Four sets of iterations over 10 weeks. Learned the importance of “Build, Build, Build.”


Magic School Bus
This project exposed me to both injection molding and CNC milling. We were given a 2D sketch from a 1st grader at a local high school, and took his idea from paper to an injection molded toy.
Learning hands-on the complexities of using an injection molding machine but also of the importance of GD&T and shrink for assembled parts.
Foam Seal Installer
Designed and fabricated fixtures for use in assembly of next-generation robots to increase accuracy and precision of foam sealer placement
This installer was made of sandwiched acrylic with black pins to increase visibility. The inner circle and pins act to align the seal to the plenum.


Center of Gravity Scale
Designed, fabricated, and calibrated a Center of Gravity Scale for use the validation of robot’s vertical and horizontal center of gravity, and weight for manufacturing quality checks
Scale uses 4 load cells capable of 150kg load each, with a combined resolution of 0.5kg and a coordinate resolution of +/- 5 mm. Data is fed into an Arduino, with results displayed on a screen, or displayed on computer’s serial monitor.
Walnut & Plaster
Spring quarter of my first-year at Northwestern, I had the opportunity to take a sculpture class. I enjoyed having an outlet to create and design objects which had no purpose outside of formal/art.
This piece was made of walnut and plaster. The build process allowed me to experiment with making jigs, manipulating form and structure, as well as forcing contrast.
