Machined essential components such as brake bobbins and suspension pull rod connectors using vertical milling and lathing, meeting tolerances of ± 0.005 inches while achieving high quality surface finishes.Conducted 3D range of motion analysis for suspension control arms in MATLAB, validating previous calculations while factoring in physical constraints to eliminate interference between components.Adapted a pre-existing handbrake into a multipart SOLIDWORKS assembly, enabling compatibility with the complete vehicle assembly.

Modeled the structure and control surfaces of a prototype empennage and generated laser-cutting files.Mentored a group of new members over the course of several meetings in the construction of a trainer aircraft, familiarizing them with basic manufacturing and safety procedures.

Secured two sponsorships resulting in a budgetary increase of 27% for manufacturing expenses.Designed, ordered, and distributed merchandise and competition uniforms, with a 32% profit margin.Organized expenses for materials, hardware, components, and travel for the design proposal submission.Managed the bill of materials and part specification and request list documentation for the 2023-2024 competition season, ensuring streamlined fabrication of necessary components.

Developed a procedurally generative system for creating extruded aluminum modules with customizable options using Blender geometry nodes. Streamlined design processes and visualization of new modules.Migrated CAD assets from SOLIDWORKS to Blender, retopologizing and creating comprehensive documentation. Enhanced usability for myself and future designers working with these assets.
