• Core team member for an experimental test team with the goal of sending a rocket past the Kármán Line• Led a team of 20 students, while teaching modeling software, simulations, and the use of heavy machinery• Designed and prototyped a high-altitude mechanical separation mechanism for a dual-stage rocket using SolidWorks, soldering, circuitrydesign, 3D printing, water jetting, and milling, while ensuring integration between other sub-teams such as avionics

• Collaborated with a team to design, test, manufacture, and compete with RC planes• Performed stress analysis simulations using SolidWorks and developed necessary documentation per competition guidelines• Managed plane integration and manufacturing of plane, including laser cutting, 3D-printing, and carbon fiber integration• Created marketing materials, including website design and sponsorship communications, and organized recruiting events

• Coordinate networking and educational events for SWE members and Rice alumni• Plan and execute Evening with Industry with over for 20 companies and 100+ attendees

• Served as a Teaching Assistant for MECH 203, a computational design course using SolidWorks for over 40 students• Instructed students in SolidWorks features including design, drawing, animation, simulation, and report generation for industry applications

• Reduced consumable costs by 95% in two common rail fuel injector types by verifying a grease change• Improved leak testing procedures by increasing ergonomics and reducing time between test by approximately 25%• Designed 3D printed fixtures for Keyence 3D microscope to enhance repeatability in fuel injector component documentation• Supported daily operations including leak testing, assembly, quality gauge development, endurance testing, and presenting progress updates

Nanoscale Heat Transfer Laboratory• Developed passive thermoregulating switches for space vehicles under a NASA Goddard Grant• Improved switch design for use outside a vacuum, increasing its cycle life through rapid prototyping and meshed metal designs• Led independent design projects, including a thermosiphon measuring device and an inverse thermoregulating switch
