As a Graduate Teaching Assistant for MEC325: Intro to Engineering Design, I oversee two sections of the course, with key responsibilities including:- Leading weekly laboratory sessions, providing hands-on supervision, and assisting students in achieving key project milestones through active engagement and support.- Evaluating assignments, projects, and exams with a focus on offering detailed, constructive feedback to foster student growth and mastery of engineering design principles.- Guiding students through hands-on design projects, encouraging teamwork, creativity, and the practical application of engineering concepts to real-world problems.In this role, I hone my teaching and leadership skills, significantly contribute to the academic advancement of undergraduate students, and gain valuable experience in engineering education and mentorship.

Conducting innovative research at the intersection of fluid dynamics and public health, my current focus revolves around the transmission dynamics of respiratory diseases, particularly airborne viruses like COVID-19, within face-to-face interactions. Leveraging principles from fluid dynamics, I aim to unravel the intricate mechanisms behind disease spread, employing mathematical modeling and simulation techniques. This research not only applies theoretical knowledge gained from undergraduate studies in calculus and linear algebra but also holds the promise of real-world impact by informing strategies for mitigating disease transmission. Additionally, I endeavor to incorporate machine learning methods to enhance our understanding and predictive capabilities.
