About
I recently graduated with a B. S. in Mechanical Engineering from the Cockrell School of Engineering at the University of Texas at Austin. I have also completed the Business Foundations Certificate from the McCombs School of Business at UT Austin.
My elective engineering courses and activities have focused on robotic mechanism design, manufacturing throughput, and rapid prototyping. I have also done lots of work with the student chapter of ASME to improve the undergraduate experience, and I have extensive experience in hands-on projects with ASME and the Longhorn Maker Studio. I currently work as a manufacturing engineer for Applied Materials in Austin, TX. -
