About Me

Hi! I’m currently an M.S. student at Cornell University advised by Prof. Kirstin H. Petersen focusing on mechanical Engineering and robotics.

I’ve worked across robotics, CFD simulation, BioMed Engr research along the way and I like thinking about systems as a whole, especially how it behave under constraints and I’m also drawn to projects that are challenging and open-ended, where progress comes from brainstorming, iterating, debugging, and making thoughtful tradeoffs. Before Cornell, I earned my B.S. in Mechanical Engineering conc. BME from Michigan State University.

I’m currently seeking internship and full-time roles where I can solve challenging problems and design, test, and build meaningful systems.
