Hi! I’m Emily, a senior at Northwestern University studying Mechanical Engineering and Psychology. I have a passion for robotics, design, and product development! I’ve always been drawn to the idea of creating things that once seemed impossible, whether that means designing a robot, developing a better product, or finding a creative solution to a problem that has never been solved before. At school I'm the acting President of the Northwestern University Robots Club (NURC) as well as the Subteam Lead for the UROV Subteam. Additionally, I am also a member of Northwestern University Space Tech and Rocketry (NUSTARS) and Society of Women Engineers (SWE).

Through my coursework, research, internships, and engineering teams, I’ve gotten to explore everything from CAD and manufacturing to robotics and automotive engineering. What I enjoy most is being able to take an idea from a sketch or CAD model and turn it into something real. Long term, I hope to work on technologies that push the boundaries of what we can build while also making a meaningful difference in how people interact with the world around them. I’m always excited to learn something new, take on a challenge, and see where an idea can go. Outside of engineering, I love playing guitar, listening to music, and playing video games (Minecraft, League of Legends, and TFT are my favs)! Lately I've also gotten into rock climbing and learning how to master chess!

On my projects tab you can take an in-depth look at some of the many projects I've the honor of working on!
