Co-Founder
Stanford, CA
Apr 2016 - Jan 2017 (9 months)
Farming Hope is an organization born from the d.school's FEED Collaborative program. We are dedicated to creating a business model that connects unhoused individuals in the Bay Area to sustainable food practices through urban farming. As a Co-Founder, I was in charge of spearheading the needfinding process by organizing meetings and interviews with major stakeholders. I was also responsible for creating a business plan for Farming Hope and what structure it will take on as we grow outside an incubator. Finally, I managed undergraduate volunteers and part-time members as a Junior at Stanford.

Summer Product Design Intern
Seattle, WA
Jul 2015 - Aug 2015 (1 month)
As a summer intern, I spent five weeks helping engineers in the design process of multiple product lines. I sketched designs for new utensil handles, rendered models in Solidworks, and printed 3D prototypes for meetings. I worked in the shop to produce foam models of handles, ice cream scoops and molcajete bowls. I helped repair old prototypes and assembled new ones from newly printed parts. I also modified existing Starbucks models in Solidworks to create new conceptual designs.

As part of the Architecture, Construction and Engineering (ACE) Program, I, along with other high school students, worked on a theoretical engineering project guided by industry professionals. At weekly meetings, we would deliberate different architectural and engineering decisions for our final project, which was a school for the disabled. I worked on the structural aspects of the building, such as calculating the moments of inertia of cross beams for each floor.

Summer Research Intern
Boston University
Jul 2013 - Aug 2013 (1 month)
My work at the Boston University Biomicroscopy Lab (PI: Jerome Mertz) was focused on testing a novel form of microscopy called reverse-oblique back illumination microscopy (reverse-OBM). My six week term at the lab involved designing a microscope part in AutoCAD, developing a high pass filter for the lab setup, and correlating microscope results using MATLAB.
