MY SKILLSET
Photographed by Wilson Moyer
I'm a student at Princeton University with a passion for learning, engineering, and making the world a better place. I have conducted research on photovoltaics, atmospheric water harvesting, and computational biology. 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.

NASA Contract Work
Atmospheric Water Harvesting
Independent Research
03 Experience
2026
Princeton Independent Work Class
Student Researcher
I designed, prototyped, and tested a functioning atmospheric water harvesting prototype. I designed the prototype in Fusion 360, and analyzed it for water harvesting efficiency. The finished prototype harvested 97 grams of water in 4.5 hours, and had an efficiency of 4.7 kWh per kg of water harvested. See more here.
2026
Princeton High Meadows Environmental Institute
Research Intern
I conducted field research on zebra collective behavior and developed code to post-process and analyze zebra motion from drone footage. The video-processing code reduced a procedure that took 15 minutes per 3 GB video to one which took 30 seconds. In the second half of the internship, I built a tool in Python to efficiently annotate baboon behavior to match with accelerometer data from their collars.
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.
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.
2025
Solar Energy Research Institute of Singapore
Research Intern
I developed code to characterize the efficiency of aesthetic solar panel designs. This internship involved conducting laboratory work, building machine-learning models, and designing image processing software in order to promote sustainable energy development.​​​​​
