Mechanical Engineering Senior at Caltech
Hi! I’m Ama, an undergraduate Mechanical Engineering student at Caltech graduating in June 2026.
My experience spans robotics, experimental research, and computational modeling, including humanoid robot control, microgravity thermophoresis experiments, and geotechnical earthquake engineering research, with work conducted across Caltech, NASA JPL, Rice University, and George Mason University. I’m particularly interested in applying mechanical engineering to environmentally beneficial and impact-driven projects.
