About Me

Collage of engineering-related images

I am a student at the University of Illinois at Chicago majoring in mechanical engineering focused on innovation in motorsport/automotive industry. This trajectory into Mechanical Engineering stems from a lot of unknowns, but contiues because of the limitless pontential the field has to offer and the exitement I feel when working on projects and seeing the completion of and idea start to finish.

Previously to my transfer to UIC I attended University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign for two years building a strong foundation in physics and mathamatics. UIUC offered many great opportunities: clubs, school spirit, community and education. I was involved in ASME and Illinois space society where I built a float for the homecoming parade and where I was part of making our most advanced and successful avionic telemetry and pyro systems for a two stage rocket. The Desision to transfer wasn't easy, but once I realized I couldn't get what I needed at UIUC I made the choice to switch and haven't looked back since. Now starting to develope a role in UIC's Formula Sae team I am thrilled to be working on something I have a unlimited passion in.
