Catalyst XL is a global student program that empowers students to start or join startups. By providing access to resources, mentorship, a robust network, hands-on experience, and a supportive community, Catalyst XL lays a strong foundation for their growth and success. Through Catalyst XL, I have been developing my foundation in entrepreneurship and forming connections with people around the world.

At the University Memorial Center on the CU Boulder campus, I am currently the student security Chief of Events. I am responsible for scheduling security staff to UMC events, event training for new security staff, and heading security at major events.

During the 2022-2023 academic year, I conducted engineering education research for the Integrated Design Engineering program at the University of Colorado Boulder. I designed attitudinal surveys and focus groups that examined the mindsets of students with respect to the program, the results of which were then examined for trends with respect to multidisciplinary engineering education. From these findings, I co-wrote a conference paper for the American Society for Engineering Education (approved April 2023), which I then presented at the Annual 2023 ASEE Conference in Baltimore, Maryland.

As an energy studies intern, I assisted Marx|Okubo’s mechanical engineering team by streamlining the company's database of energy audit data, enhancing the company’s ability to calculate end use data, and refining methods for evaluating energy savings. In addition, I helped conduct property condition assessments to examine the safety and efficiency of mechanical, electrical, and plumbing systems for buildings.

Startup Summer is an annual program held every year by the Silicon Flatirons Center for Law, Technology, and Entrepreneurship. Through hands-on workshops, invaluable guest lectures, and innovative lessons, students are taught the entrepreneurial startup process. During the program, my team and I began our development of Enriched, a dietary platform for cancer patients. The summer culminated in an end of the summer pitch competition, where we were able to pitch our product to the Boulder community.
