I'm a student at Princeton University with a passion for learning, engineering, and making the world a better place. I love 3D design, building things with my hands, and coding. I enjoy learning new things, expanding my skill set, and using what I know to help those around me. In my free time, I like to read, mountain bike, and tinker.

NASA Contract Work
Independent Research
03 Experience
2022-2023
NASA
Contract Engineer
I developed a collapsible parabolic trough mirror to melt polyethylene to mix with lunar regolith for material production and habitat construction on the moon. The prototype that I engineered on has been selected to proceed into final design in order to send to the moon and aid with Artemis missions. Our project also featured in Channel 4 CBS News.
2022
NASA
Intern
I researched the viability of drone deployment for drought management. This involved prototyping a drone with instruments and calculations as well as writing a report which NASA published on their site.
2021-2023
Lakewood High Computer Repair Crew
Co-Founder and Leader
I have helped start a group dedicated towards helping improve equity in our school by ensuring that people have access to working technology. We take courses to learn about computers, and apply our knowledge to fix student’s and teacher’s devices.
2022
IX Power
Intern
I engineered a bike-powered water pump to send to Sierra Leone. The process involved research design, prototyping, and product testing. I also wrote research on the viability of desalination which was published on the company website.
2020-2022
Jefferson County Communities That Care
Youth Intern
I worked on a team of four peers along with a group of over 20 youth to analyze and research problems facing teenagers in Jefferson County. We identified solutions, decided which solution will be the most feasible and impactful, and worked on implementing the solution.
2024
NOAA
Research Software Developer
I implemented a Runge-Kutta Integrator to trace the Earth’s magnetic field lines down to 10-2 m precision, and developed field-line tracing algorithm with O(n) time cost, 130x faster than brute-force method. Our ultimate goal is to write a paper on Sub-Auroral Polarization Streams (SAPS) to publish in a scientific journal.
