I turn engineering questions into working systems.
Mechanical and aerospace engineering student focused on thoughtful CAD, testable hardware, instrumentation, and the decisions that connect analysis to the bench.
My process moves from requirements to analysis to physical evidence—with every claim grounded in what has actually been designed, built, or measured.
Selected work
Three projects, three modes of engineering.

Independent project · Aug 2026–Present
Reaction-Wheel Cube — Single-Vertex Balancing
Developing a 150 mm cube intended to balance on one corner using three mutually perpendicular reaction-wheel axes and spacecraft attitude-control principles.
Engineering work
Calculated preliminary wheel inertia, angular momentum, and motor-torque requirements while comparing BLDC motor and controller candidates.
Packaging result
Integrated three orthogonal Ø70 mm wheel modules and electronics envelopes, then optimized placement to maintain 3.16–3.18 mm wheel clearances.
Built a two-channel measurement workflow to capture hoop and axial strain from an instrumented thin-walled pressure vessel and compare the response with mechanics-of-materials predictions.
Designed a custom LabVIEW VI for taring, real-time acquisition, visualization, and data logging.
Integrated dual strain-gauge and amplifier channels and converted amplified voltage into engineering strain.
Evaluated experimental results against analytical predictions using uncertainty and error analysis.

Design & Manufacturing Lab · Spring 2026
Air Engine Design & Manufacturing
Machined and assembled a functional air engine while translating drawings, tolerances, and process plans into finished hardware.
Produced components with a manual lathe and vertical mill, including drilling and tapping operations.
Verified critical dimensions with precision measurement tools throughout fabrication and fit-up.
Applied tolerancing, fits, fastener selection, and manufacturing-process planning to resolve assembly interfaces.
I’m pursuing a dual B.S. in Mechanical Engineering and Aerospace Engineering at the University of Florida. I’m most engaged when design decisions have to survive both analysis and hands-on verification.
