About Me
Exploring Aerospace Systems & Thermal Design: A Professional Profile
I’m a Mechanical Engineering student at Ohio University specializing in aerospace systems, thermal control design, and avionics. Combining technical precision with a passion for creative problem-solving, I focus on building, designing, and analyzing complex engineering systems.
My professional goal is to contribute to the aerospace industry specifically in satellite development, avionics integration, and thermal management systems.
Research & Leadership
- Thermal Modeling Research: Working within the Intel-funded ASCENT Research Program under Dr. Muhammad Ali, focusing on the thermal modeling of advanced packaging for integrated circuits.
- Rocket Club Avionics & Leadership: Serving as the Treasurer and an Avionics Team member for the OU Rocket Club, where I gain hands-on experience building and designing flight systems.
- Technical Expertise: Experienced in finite element analysis (FEA) using Abaqus, avionics architecture, and technical project lifecycle management.
Beyond the Lab
Outside of engineering, I am an avid photographer and history enthusiast. One of my most meaningful experiences was traveling to Washington D.C. and Hawaii to perform for United States veterans, including marching in the Pearl Harbor Memorial Parade and singing alongside the U.S.S. Missouri.
Standing on the historic site where World War II ended gave me a profound respect for the sacrifices of previous generations and the sheer power of human ingenuity. This experience deeply shaped my perspective, inspiring me to approach both my engineering studies and my photography with a constant sense of curiosity, respect, and purpose.
