I am a Sophomore Mechanical Engineering student with extensive experience in AutoCAD and collaborative engineering projects. Specifically, I have extensive AutoCAD experience from three and a half years of part-time professional use, along with experience utilizing other CAD software. I have also participated in a robotics team and was heavily involved with design there. I also have participated in independent, though supervised, product development through my high school capstone engineering project.

By joining the RARE Lab, I hope to gain research experience and contribute to design and development. I am incredibly interested in robotics and want to pursue the development of it. In the long term, I want to further develop the ability to conduct research so I can do research of my own someday.
