About

I am a Mechanical Engineering student at Merrimack College with a strong passion for designing, building, and collaborating on complex engineering challenges. My current academic focus is in aeronautical engineering and aerospace & defense, and I have gained hands-on experience through involvement in VEX Robotics and Formula SAE/F at both Merrimack and UNH. Professionally, I am a Test Engineer at Pica Product Development, where I work on R&D for electronic remote monitoring solutions. My responsibilities include testing electronic and mechanical hardware, designing test fixtures, and supporting enclosure designs. This role has given me direct experience with injection molding design and achieving IP67-rated enclosures, strengthening my ability to design with real-world manufacturability and reliability in mind. Outside of work and academics, I am an avid car enthusiast and regularly compete in SCCA autocross events. I also mentor my local high school’s FIRST Robotics Competition (FRC) team, where I help students develop technical skills and a passion for engineering. In my free time, I enjoy working on RC aircraft and other model projects.
