Irvine, California, United States
I am a fourth-year Mechanical Engineering student at the University of California, Irvine, specializing in Energy Systems and Environmental Engineering, with a strong passion for renewable energy and sustainable technologies. I am particularly motivated by the challenge of designing systems that improve energy efficiency and contribute to a cleaner, more sustainable future. I am passionate about tutoring students and helping them understand challenging engineering concepts. Through my projects, I have gained hands-on experience in analysis, design, and problem-solving. I performed FEA on a turbofan model in SOLIDWORKS, exploring how geometric changes impact stress and displacement under various loading and boundary conditions. I also contributed to the electrical system design of a semi-autonomous robot, developing a working knowledge of circuits, and completed a mini tower project where I designed and built a prototype under strict constraints and performance requirements. I am currently working on my senior design project, where I am designing a hydroelectric susbsystem as part of a hybrid mechanical energy storage system, focusing on turbine selection, fluid system design and integration with our power generation system. I am currently seeking opportunities in engineering roles where I can apply my background in mechanical systems, energy, and analysis while continuing to grow as an engineer. I am open to a wide range of engineering positions and industries, with particular interest in roles that involve problem-solving, system design, and real-world impact.
