I am a graduate of Johns Hopkins University, holding a Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering, as well as a Master in Engineering Management and Robotics. I was born and raised in Huancayo, Peru, and completed high school at Hutchinson Central Technical H.S. in Buffalo, NY. From a very young age, I learned the art of working with tools and leveraging mechanical advantage to solve physical problems from my father, who is a handyman. This experience instilled in me hands-on skills, a commitment to perfectionism, and the persistence needed to find innovative solutions. I am always eager to continue learning while working on projects, engaging in examination, design, construction, testing, and iteration processes to discover optimal solutions. My ultimate passion lies in leading engineering initiatives and advancing the field of robotics to benefit society. Persistence stands as my core value, enabling me to overcome any obstacle that comes my way.
