Mechanical Design · Aerospace Engineering
Aerospace engineering student at the University of Minnesota, passionate about mechanical design, CAD, prototyping, and building practical engineering solutions.
Selected engineering projects demonstrating design, analysis, and teamwork.
Led mechanical design efforts for a research robot, coordinating a team of 10+ students across attachment design, winch development, and system integration.
Redesigned an attachment to reduce its per-unit mass by 98%, and contributed to safety-factor analysis, inverse kinematics modeling, prototyping, and testing.
Led mechanical design of the Power Distribution Unit (PDU) enclosure for an electric Formula SAE race car, using SolidWorks and SolidWorks PDM.
Worked across electrical, battery, cooling, and chassis interfaces, with attention to manufacturability, serviceability, and waterproofing.
Designed and built payload components for a high-altitude balloon project, using 3D-printed parts and design-for-assembly principles.
Contributed to preparing the payload for flight, with the balloon successfully reaching an altitude of 110,000 feet.
Leading a seven-person senior design team developing a lightweight vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL) drone for remote inspection applications.
The project also includes designing a waterproof, transportable docking station to support the drone's deployment and storage.
