Wrote and optimized MATLAB scripts supporting Raytheon's Over-The-Horizon Radar (OTHR) modernaization project with satellites.
Analyzed multicopter and winged configurations, programmed Monte Carlo simulation, and ran parametric CFD to optimize flight characteristics for TAMU's DBVF competition team.
Designed and tested fluid systems, feedline assemblies, and P&ID documentation for Elysium 2.0. Developed a robust inventory BOM for a student-led liquid rocket engine team.
Led a 12-member team to design and program a lunar crash site search algorithm in a high-fidelity simulation (SpaceTeamsPro) under extreme operational constraints.
12-member team lead for the Lunar Search and Rescue (LSAR) Challenge at TAMU SEDS, hosted by Space Team University
Captained a top 2% global VEX Robotics team across 2 seasons. Overhauled documentation, established engineering design processes (EDP), and led design/build iterations.
Coordinated massive regional robotics tournaments and summer camps, raising $75,000+ while overhauling the club's logistics and operational documentation.
Managed external communication in matters regarding sponsorships, partnerships, and professional development for the Texas A&M University chapter of the Vertical Flight Society.
Won 1st Place. Iterated 2.3 million sizing configurations and coded search simulations to design a highly optimized search & rescue lift + cruise eVTOL under extreme weather constraints.
Iterated
through 2,362,692 sizing configurations, varying:
[1]
MTOW, [2] S (wing planform area),
[3] A (total lift-propeller area), and
[4] hover fraction
Designed, prototyped, and presented a plate-design small modular nuclear reactor (SMR) proof of concept optimized for stable burnup and fuel efficiency.
Conducted trade studies, CAD, FEA, and aerodynamic research for a structurally optimized rocket. Coded a landing simulation to determine thrust activation altitudes.
Worked in a 4-person team to design a rocket, produce CAD/FEA, conduct aerodynamic research and calculations (propulsion and drag), and code a landing simulation to determine thrust activation altitude
A comprehensive document of documents, outlining the end-to-end systems engineering approach for managing complex projects, with detailed methodologies and templates for each step .
Coming soon.
Authored a technical guide for 1) tuning 14 individual factors of 2 launch mechanisms; 2) pneumatics.
A series of educational infographics exploring the mechanical, thermodynamic, electric, and software engineering processes behind common everyday objects.
A series of infographics exploring the engineering behind everyday objects
Educational infographics exploring the 4 forces of flight, focusing heavily on engineering principles and processes that shape, limit, and optimize aircraft design.
An emphasis on the 4 forces of flight (thrust, drag, lift, weight) and
the design components corresponding
to each — exploring engineering principles and processes that shape,
limit, and optimize design.
See below: an introduction to the jet engine, beginning with the general
stages and process, then branching
into its variants.
Achieved Eagle Scout rank with 3 palms. Designed, built, and installed a 14'×4'×3' greenhouse bench for a local non-profit as my capstone project.
A high-fidelity surface model of a Boeing 737-800 aircraft developed independently to master complex curvature and lofting in Autodesk Fusion 360.
Conceptualized a carbon fiber F1 brake pedal engineered to withstand 2000 N of driver input force, calculating mechanical stress distributions and cylinder placements.
