Mechanical engineering / robotics / rocketry / cars / photography

I build physical systems that fly, drive, launch, and survive test day. This portfolio is the field log: machines, photos, controls, failures, and the rebuilds that made them sharper.

About
Engineer first. Builder always.
I'm a Mechanical Engineering student at Purdue who learns by building. Long before lecture halls, I was tearing down RC gear, soldering flight controllers, and figuring out why things break — usually by breaking them first.
- CAD / CNC / flight test
- Founder & team builder
- Hands-on prototyping
- Sponsorship & outreach
How I Build
Design. Prototype. Test. Repeat.
The same loop every time; only the hardware changes.
Design
Every build starts in CAD — constraints first, then geometry. If it can't survive a tolerance stack-up on screen, it won't survive the field.
Prototype
3D print it, machine it, solder it. Get a physical version in hand fast, because the first article always teaches you something the model didn't.
Test
Fly it, drive it, launch it — then write down what broke. Test days are data days, and the crash log is the most honest design review there is.
Iterate
Rebuild lighter, stiffer, simpler. The second version is always better because the first one paid the tuition.
