Fremont, California, United States

• Worked on quick timelines to extract material and execute over 10 tests with over 200 coupons, generating data to determine part reliability for manufacturing ramp-up. Test foci: EMI, Adhesive strength, water ingress.
• Designed and drafted steel fixture to hold 8 tons of force for bolt pullout test, validated structural performance and optimized geometry using first principles and Ansys FEA
• Met weekly with people across the company, gained industry knowledge on HV battery systems, power electronics, electric powertrains, high volume manufacturing methods (stamping, injection molding, die casting.
• Designed and manufactured jig to precisely sand excess material off 1500 plastic clips. Iterated rapidly and met with users to optimize the process, reducing cycle time per clip from 2 minutes to 15 seconds

Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, United States

- Designed and fabricated a 200-part, 4 degrees of freedom hopping robot with greater efficiency and durability than previous version and creative modular design for ease of use and future iteration.- Collaborated with lab mates to design and conduct rover 100 hours of experiments with many different robots- Learned relevant controls theory to simulate.

Boston, Massachusetts, United States

• Designed fixtures for testing and fabrication of a novel aerospace ruggedized miniature electro-mechanical system
• Collaborated with professional engineering team of 6 in weekly design reviews, engaged with Rapid Prototyping Laboratory and in-house Machine Shop to design parts for manufacturability and minimize iterations needed
• Created custom mounts and wrote python scripts to create an automated testing platform for LIDAR sensor characterization experiments, decreasing time needed for data collection by a factor of 5

Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, United States

- Designed and presented 25 STEM and sustainability lessons plans for 6th grade class of 30 students- Collaborated with teaching team of 5 to develop creative and effective solutions for virtual interaction and engagement- Engaged in program-wide developmental workshops to grow as an educator and climate citizen

Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, United States

- Designed and taught 15 weeklong camps exposing children aged 5-11 to engineering design, coding, and circuits through an innovative Minecraft platform- Solved technical and logistical issues to create a fun and welcoming community

Raleigh, NC

- Modeled and 3D printed silicone molds and devised a complex fabrication process to make prototype artificial muscles with greater efficiency and compactness than previous versions; designed brackets and mounts essential for experimentation. - Collected and analyzed data; summarized work in 5 technical reports, 10 blog posts, research poster for SNCURCS.
