Aerospace engineering / Embry-Riddle
Mechanical design.
Propulsion. Testing.
I’m an aerospace engineering student at Embry-Riddle. I use CAD, prototyping, and data analysis to work through design problems and understand what needs to be tested next.
Open to Summer 2027 internships

Selected work / 2023–2026
UAV packaging, propulsion, model evaluation, and a new computational design study. Each case separates the contribution, calculated results, and work still to be tested.
01 / UAV DESIGN
A disaster-response UAV concept combining first-aid delivery with camera-based assessment. The work made payload packaging part of the aircraft layout.

Inside the project
TEAM CAD MODEL / PROPELLER VIEW02 / DATA EVALUATION
A guided machine-learning project using Kepler light-curve data. Comparing the errors revealed something overall accuracy could hide.

0 of 503 / PROPULSION ANALYSIS
A conceptual two-stage launch vehicle study. My motor-sizing work connected propulsion choices to the mass allocation and geometry used by the team.
TEAM ASSEMBLY / ACADEMIC CONCEPT04 / COMPUTATIONAL DESIGN STUDY
A new computational prototype comparing three passive mounts. The decision balances vibration isolation, gravity sag and movement near resonance.
CONCEPT CAD / UNLOADED ASSEMBLYThe person behind the projects
I’m interested in the point where a calculation has to make sense in a physical system.
Leading student projects has given me opportunities to work through design assumptions, explain our findings, and think carefully about what should be tested next. I want to keep building that understanding alongside engineers who design, build, and evaluate real hardware.
I study in Daytona Beach and call California home. My interests include mechanical design, flight test, propulsion, and how the pieces of an aircraft work together.

Additional learning
University of Pennsylvania · Online coursework and certificate · August 2024
Implemented quadrotor PD controllers in MATLAB course exercises and studied rigid-body dynamics and minimum-snap trajectories.
Beyond the reports
I co-founded and host an aerospace and technology podcast, producing episodes and managing publishing and promotion.
Seeking Summer 2027 opportunities
For Summer 2027, I’m interested in mechanical design, hardware integration, and test engineering roles. California is home; I’m also open to opportunities elsewhere.
