Mechanical Design Engineering Student | Applied Robotics & Prototyping
Mechanical Design Engineering student with a focus in applied robotics, mechatronics, DFM, and prototyping. If I'm not making something, you can probably find me riding my bike (or at least one of them!).
Project Lead for award-winning robotics competition team. Responsible for setting project milestones and coordinating team communication. Designed and implemented the robot’s integrated planetary wheel system, enabling efficient navigation on fine sand while maintaining compatibility with lightweight motors.

Student design consultant on NOAA- and Cal Poly Humboldt–sponsored pinniped flipper tag redesign. Worked with client liaison Dr. Dawn Goley to translate field requirements into engineering criteria. Utilized CAD, cost analysis, and iterative prototyping (FDM 3D printing, silicone molding, and basic machining) to develop a durable, legible three-piece tag system compatible with existing applicators, which was accepted as a viable path toward future field implementation.

Developed lesson plans for a series of CAD workshops for engineering students, covering everything from downloading software to configuration tables, to bridge the gap between campus resources and student expectations.
Since joining the high school Mountain Bike Racing team, I've spent nearly every free minute on my bike; exploring, training, and racing. I've been to many places you can't get driving, and won some fun and challenging events like the:
