What I'm looking for

I seek a master's program or entry-level engineering role in thermo-fluids or energy systems to apply hands-on design, research, and renewable-energy skills within collaborative teams offering mentorship and project ownership.

I am a mechanical engineering student specializing in thermo-fluids, heat transfer, and energy systems, driven to develop clean energy and fluid-driven technologies. I combine strong academic foundations with hands-on project and competition experience.

I designed and fabricated a prototype solar-powered fluid-agitated bioreactor, performing PV array sizing, hydraulic design, control system development, and preliminary performance testing. I also placed second in a national engineering olympiad and completed internships focusing on electrical machine maintenance, robotics simulation, and practical fabrication.

I am proficient with SolidWorks, AutoCAD, Arduino, C/C++, and simulation tools, and I work well in teams under pressure. I seek opportunities to apply my engineering calculations, design skills, and research orientation toward impactful projects in clean energy and advanced thermal systems.
