What I'm looking for

I am seeking a role that fosters innovation and collaboration, where I can contribute to impactful projects and grow my engineering skills.

I am a dedicated Mechanical Design Engineer with a Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute. My passion lies in innovating solutions and improvements for operational systems, leveraging my skills in research, computer programming, design, and development. Currently, I am working at ASR Corporation, where I draft projects related to laser head assemblies using SolidWorks, ensuring compliance with ANSI standards.

Throughout my career, I have gained valuable experience in various engineering roles. At AMA GROUP Consulting Engineers, I designed ductwork using REVIT and AutoCAD, collaborating with multiple teams to ensure project success. My involvement in the RPI Multidisciplinary Capstone Course allowed me to develop a prototype for a solar-powered cooking appliance aimed at improving living conditions in underdeveloped countries. I also interned at Standard Fire Suppression Corp, where I designed sprinkler systems and provided technical assistance to manufacturing teams.
