About

Overly energetic athlete turned avid creator

Mechanical Engineer looking to explore every part of the industry

I have dipped my toe into nearly every creative opportunity that has presented itself to me. My journey began at age 2 with puzzles, then moved quickly into needlework and carpentry. As I began my formal training, I delved into such diverse fields as robotics, 3D modelling and printing, and some light app development. I am motivated by visualization of the final product; from scarves, to 3D printed spaceships, to mechanical systems in a submarine.

I also have an insatiable drive for self-improvement. I delight in learning new skills, methods, and practices; I never turn down an opportunity to make myself more effective, efficient, and knowledgable.
