ABOUT ME
I am an Aerospace Engineering student at UCF with experience applying engineering fundamentals to real-world systems through manufacturing and quality engineering internships at Conti Federal Services and Adjuvo Technologies. My work has required detailed interpretation of engineering drawings, configuration control, and technical documentation within complex, regulated environments.
I am particularly interested in Guidance, Navigation, and Control, propulsion, and R&D-focused roles where analytical modeling and system-level thinking are critical. I have experience using MATLAB for dynamic system analysis, SolidWorks for CAD and basic FEA, and applying thermodynamics and fluid mechanics principles to engineering problems. Through leadership experience and managing teams, I have developed the ability to translate engineering requirements into executable technical solutions while maintaining precision and accountability.

Dynamic Modeling and Transfer Function Analysis of Quarter-Car Suspension System
Developed a dynamic model of a quarter-car suspension system to analyze vehicle response to road disturbances. The system was modeled using second-order differential equations representing sprung and unsprung masses, suspension stiffness, and...
CAD Modeling and Structural Analysis in SolidWorks
Completed a series of multi-part component and assembly designs in SolidWorks, emphasizing parametric modeling, design intent, and manufacturability. Projects included fully constrained assemblies, motion relationships, and tolerance-aware part...
Lean Process Adoption and Field Implementation Redesign (Version 2.0)
Led an 8-person intern team tasked with evaluating and improving adoption of Conti Federal’s standardized lean construction framework across the companies active project sites. The company had established structured tools for subcontractor...
