• Ranked 1st place internationally in Fixed-Wing Demonstration and Most Innovative Award in the SUAS competition.• Oversee team recruitment and mentorship, manage team projects and timelines, standardize deliberations procedures, provide feedback for members’ design reviews and performance.• Led the transition of aircraft from an electric motor to a 60cc gas engine, effectively doubling horizontal flight time.• Led a team of fifteen underclassmen successfully delivering mission-critical parts. Provided guidance on manufacturing efficiency, material selection, and optimal orientation.• Directed the evaluation of axial and shear stress characteristics in composite materials fabricated with different aluminum honeycomb densities to optimize strength of composite fuselage while minimizing weight.• Developed and produced WEBay, an electrical bay flush to wing holding multiple accessible batteries, reducing manufacturing time by 70% and achieving an expedited two-month deadline from the five-month standard.• Designed and performed FEA on horizontal propeller motor mounts that resisted deformation under varying in-flight loading conditions and achieved an 80% weight reduction of the previous design.• Designed, manufactured and validated the integrity of landing gear, implementing nose-wheel steering and coil/leaf spring suspension systems for a fixed-wing VTOL aircraft, achieving a 20% reduction in weight.

•Used microscopes to observe the growth of tumor cells, noting cell morphology and various growth curves•Analyzed changes in cell proteins through western blot. Especially compared changes in drug target proteins before and after drug treatment•Participated in animal drug effect evaluation experiments, recording changes in animal weight, measuring tumor growth size, and observing growth of tumor cells in mice through in-vivo imaging (luciferase images), especially those before and after drug treatment
