Engineers Without Boarders is a non-profit organization that is involved with the implementation of sustainable engineering projects around the world. For the University of Rochester chapter of the organization, I have been an active member since September 2021 and became fundraising coordinator in December 2021. In this role, I plan events across campus to raise money for our chapter projects and recruit other ambitious engineering students to join the club.

During my summer internship at Shurtape, I had the opportunity to lead a critical project that significantly enhanced the company's analytical capabilities. The project's primary objective was to develop innovative test methods for the identification of monomers within complex polymer compositions, with a particular focus on acrylic copolymers, which at the time lacked comprehensive analytical data.

The project's primary objective was to develop innovative test methods for the identification of monomers within complex polymer compositions, with a particular focus on acrylic copolymers, which at the time lacked comprehensive analytical data. Leveraging thermal pyrolysis techniques coupled with Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC/MS), we successfully obtained a deeper understanding of the chemical constituents in tape backings and adhesives, enabling the team to better comprehend raw materials and those used by competitors. This project not only strengthened the company's scientific approach but also empowered the team to predict performance characteristics, modify adhesive formulations, and set the foundation for future Py-GC/MS method development. As part of Shurtape's continuous commitment to innovation and excellence, this initiative represented a significant step forward in advancing the company's analytical capabilities and fostering scientific expertise in the field.
