●Conducted M&A modeling and capital markets research. Researched potential investors, built pitch decks.●Created financial model for new fund with projected $2 million investment and acquisition of 40 rental units.

New Haven

I established a new undergraduate organization within Yale University dedicated to introducing robotics to under-represented youth and inspire them to enter STEM careers in the future. We offer a semi-annual program to New Haven middle schoolers, partnering with Yale School of Engineering and Applied Science, Dwight Hall, and Yale Pathways to Science.

As a member of Yale Undergraduate Diversified Investment, I am gaining knowledge about the finance field through stock pitch competitions and other activities.

Washington D.C. Metro Area

I interned in the the Enterprise Content Management division of the U.S. Department of the Treasury. Over the summer, I took on various projects involving project development, front end computer science, budgeting, and policy making. I worked on the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS) project, developing a system for international entities to declare investments for committee approval. I additionally created the cost model for the ONE CT application, which was developed to track workflow within government organizations. Finally, I learned about policy writing and implemented policies for interns within Enterprise Business Solutions.

Washington D.C. Metro Area

I designed and automated the ShaftCam instrument for civil engineering applications at Aver Technologies. The ShaftCam allows for video inspection of drilled foundation bottoms underwater with the ability to measure sediment thickness using a spring-loaded penetrometer with a graduated scale. After many design iterations, I have successfully automated the penetrometer measurement using an ultrasonic sensor. I prepared the required shop drawings and literature, and we filed for a provisional patent.

Washington D.C. Metro Area

I conducted research on human-robot interaction using a robot called HUBO, a humanoid robot. I worked on designing a head for HUBO using Solidworks, and I adapted the completed robot head, now called the Sensing, Computing, and Interactive Platform for Research in Robotics (SCIPPR), to various sensors. Additionally, I worked on the initial proceedings of a four-year project using artificial intelligence for robot physical multitasking.
