Robotics engineer, volleyball player, artist,
and avid enjoyer of good times.
Thanks for visiting my website! Please note that it is a work in progress.
I am a "jack-of-all-trades" engineer with a positive, team-first attitude.
I am in the process of learning as much as I can in all aspects of life so that I can be as impactful as possible.
I'm always in the mood to chat, so please use my contact info below to reach out if anything here piques your interest.
Professional Life
Growing as an Engineer Post-Grad
After graduating from MIT in 2021 with a Bachelors Degree in Aerospace Engineering, a minor in Computer Science, and an Acting HASS (Humanities Arts and Social Science) concentration, I moved to LA to work at the Aerospace Corporation.
The Aerospace Corporation
Here, I found myself at home in the Collaborative Autonomous Vehicle Ecosystem Laboratory (CAVE Lab), where I work on robotic control software, rapid hardware prototyping, and sensor integration for ground testing of satellite payloads. Using these customized robotics testbeds, my team and I support Rendezvous and Proximity Operations (RPO), In-orbit Servicing and Manufacturing (ISAM), and Space Mobility and Logistics (SM&L) missions. I get to wear many hats in this role, garnering me experience in robotics, space vehicles, applied AI/ML, and technical leadership.
Personal Life
In my free time, I find myself cycling between my favorite hobbies. Similar to my work-style, I love to pursue many things at once - the more stimulation the merrier! Recently, I seem to spend the majority of my time on art, sports, friends, and home projects.
Home Projects
I am currently working towards building my technical knowledge outside of work by spinning up my own home server and designing, simulating, and programming my own virtual robot arm. I use these projects to hone my foundational skills and quell curiosities I get from my work.
Art
I have been interested in visual art my entire life. From proportedly drawing fingers and toes on my stick figures in preschool, to taking advanced art courses in high school and college, I have tried my best to keep this passion alive.
Sports
Growing up, I played any sports that my parents signed me up for. It just so happened I got signed up for a lot of them! I played volleyball in high school and college, so that is certainly my sport of choice, but I also ski, surf, play in recreational softball leagues, lift weights, rock climb, and run.
