I am a Mechanical Engineer and Aerospace Engineering graduate student at USC with a strong interest in aerospace systems, propulsion, and hands-on design. I enjoy understanding how complex systems work and improving them through design, analysis, prototyping, and testing.

 

My recent work has focused on aerospace and propulsion-related projects. I helped develop a 3D-printed VTOL drone, where I worked on aircraft structure, forward-flight stability, tail sizing, manufacturability, and design iteration. I am also involved with USC’s Liquid Propulsion Lab, contributing to turbopump-related design challenges such as turbine concepts, nozzle development, and high-speed rotating machinery for rocket propulsion applications.

 

Before that, I contributed to USC Formula SAE Electric by designing welding fixture plates for the vehicle frame, using Siemens NX and manufacturing-focused design to improve chassis build accuracy. These experiences have allowed me to work across CAD, prototyping, structural design, aerodynamic stability, manufacturing, and engineering analysis.

 

I am especially interested in aerospace, propulsion, advanced manufacturing, and emerging technologies. What drives me most is turning ideas into functional hardware through iteration, testing, and practical engineering design.
