MIT D-Lab Coursework [EC.720]

Redesigned a field-deployable patient transport stretcher for low-infrastructure environments, balancing durability, transport efficiency, rider comfort, and locally maintainable fabrication methods.

Studio 3e8 × MIT Martin Trust Center Pozen Fellowship

Supported metal additive manufacturing and product development initiatives through mechanical design, prototyping, fabrication support, and entrepreneurial project development.

MIT Coursework [2.007]

Designed and fabricated an autonomous/RC competition robot using CAD, rapid prototyping, and embedded control systems; awarded the Glinda Prize for robot design and aesthetics.

MIT Coursework [16.632]

Developed and tested small-scale autonomous systems using IR, ultrasonic, and IMU sensors with PID, bang-bang, and finite-state-machine control architectures for navigation and control.

In August 2025, I developed a RAG-based AI chatbot modeled after my voice and consulting approach to provide clear, actionable guidance for underrepresented and ambitious college applicants. I built and deployed the JavaScript and Python-based backend API on Vercel, and integrated the frontend through XML with my website on Squarespace, enabling visitors to engage with the chatbot in real time.

Try It Out

To streamline remote monitoring of active 3D prints, I built a lightweight alert system that pushed real-time status updates to Slack. Using TypeScript and SQL, I scripted database polling to detect state changes and integrated with the Slack API to post updates like print start and completion. The system enabled frictionless, multi-device monitoring, reduced manual check-ins, and—after refining the logic to trigger at critical instances —cut message noise by 80% while improving response efficiency.

Fall of 2024, I Designed and implemented a Turing-complete Scheme interpreter, supporting arithmetic operations, control flow, lambda expressions, recursion, and file imports.

Developed and optimized algorithms to improve execution efficiency, demonstrating proficiency in data structures, iteration, recursion, and time complexity analysis
