I am a fourth-year mechanical engineering student at The Ohio State University in Columbus. I work part-time at OSU's Outdoor Adventure Center as an outdoor adventure trip leader, belay-certified climbing instructor, and in the equipment room. I also work part-time at ANS Geo, a geotechnical engineering firm where I help with data analysis and professional writing as well as field testing and communicating with subcontractors. I believe that being active and spending time outdoors is vitally important to making any life whole, and I enjoy skiing, kayaking, whitewater rafting, canoeing (including 10-day canoe trip down Buffalo River, Arkansas in 2022), running, biking, playing basketball, scuba diving, and playing spikeball. I also enjoy spending time with family and friends, playing cards, playing guitar in jam sessions with friends, and volunteering.
