Mechanical Engineering student at McMaster University. Obsessed with aerospace, applied physics, and the idea that the simplest solution is almost always the right one.
I'm an aspiring engineer from the Greater Toronto Area, currently studying Mechanical Engineering at McMaster University. From a young age I've been drawn to how things work — why planes stay in the air, how forces interact, what happens when a design fails and what it takes to make it not fail again.
My goal is to contribute meaningfully to the future of airline transportation. Whether that means improving the efficiency of existing aircraft, designing new propulsion systems, or rethinking how aviation infrastructure works — I want to be part of that work.
I believe the simplest solution is often the best solution — a principle reinforced through every prototype iteration and project setback I've learned from.
Outside of engineering coursework, I gravitate toward hands-on creation. Machining a mallet on a lathe, building a wooden box with finger lap joints, designing a claw end-effector for a robot arm — these aren't just projects, they're how I've learned to think.
Every extra part, variable, or assumption is a potential failure point. The best solution is often the simplest one.
Physical prototypes reveal things that no amount of sketching or simulation can. Iterate fast, iterate cheap, and let the prototpye define direction
Technology only matters when it solves a real problem for a real person. Every constraint is an opportunity to understand your user better.
Mechanical Engineering program at McMaster University. Completed two design projects: a robot arm end-effector (Project 1) and a client-facing mechanical ball launcher (Project 3). Developed skills in CAD, Python, 3D printing, and project management.
Undertook semester-long precision manufacturing projects — a manual-lathe turned aluminum mallet and a maple finger lap joint box. Self-taught lathe operation, and developed an instinct for measurement, tolerancing, and machine error that has carried into university projects.
Solid modelling, assemblies, iterative design, exploded views.
Parametric modelling, part and large assembly design, technical drawings.
Automation, control systems, encryption with Bcrypt, flowchart-driven programming.
FDM prototyping, scale modelling, mechanism validation, rapid iteration.
Turning, facing, tapering and tolerancing in aluminum.
GANTT charts, delegation, conflict resolution, timeline management.
