As a junior mechanical engineering student, I am interested in acquiring more experience in design engineering. In pursuit of this goal, I joined Guadaloop, a hyperloop design team, as a design engineer for the spring and summer of 2023. Doing so taught me to value teamwork as I met students who were just as excited to help others develop their passion for engineering. I have also completed an internship at Caterpillar, Inc. to further my exposure to engineering, develop my interpersonal skills, and experience the workforce in a large company that stays true to its moral values. I am currently working for Celestica as an intern developing networking products as a part of the mechanical design team.
