About Me

I am committed to continuously improving myself and the environment around me

Background

As I enter my fifth year of Aerospace Engineering at the University of Cincinnati, I bring a robust foundation of practical experience gained through three internships and personal projects. These experiences have honed my skills in areas such as 3D modeling, software, product management, and technical writing, underscoring my ability to connect with others and drive collaborative success.

Career Objectives

I am driven by the desire to constantly push my limits, to cultivate and be in environments that foster ideas. My firm belief is that the power of collaboration - that people, not singular deliverables - drive success. Ultimately, I am dedicated to delivering products that people love and that bring joy to their lives.
