Aspiring electrical engineer specializing in nanoelectronics and photonics.
What I'm looking for
I am an aspiring electrical engineer with a focus on nanoelectronics and photonics, currently pursuing my B.E. at Stony Brook University, expected to graduate in December 2025. My academic journey has been enriched by my involvement in various honor societies, including the SALUTE Honor Society, where I serve as Vice President, and the Phi Theta Kappa Honor Society during my time at Suffolk Community College. These experiences have honed my leadership skills and deepened my commitment to supporting fellow students, particularly veterans.
In addition to my academic pursuits, I have gained practical experience through various roles, including my time as an Air Traffic Control Navigational Aids Technician in the United States Marine Corps, where I operated and maintained critical equipment valued at over $3 million. My role as a Utility Advisor at Element Energy Systems allowed me to engage communities in green energy initiatives, further fueling my passion for sustainable technology. I am eager to apply my skills in electrical engineering and my dedication to innovation in a dynamic work environment.
