    Hi! I'm a grad student at MIT studying mechanical engineering.

    I love precision machine design, human centered design and solving tough problems. You're most likely to find me in the machine shop, rocking out doing CAD and analysis, or on a mountain. 

    Check out my RESUME and some of my projects below!

    I work at the nexus of

    mechanically-minded design & impact driven problem solving
