My current research focus is in aerospace and manufacturing engineering, with interests in aircraft structures, advanced manufacturing processes, and improving production efficiency. I am especially interested in how engineering design and manufacturing systems can be optimized to support innovative technologies such as sustainable aviation and next generation aircraft.
Yes. I have participated in research related activities through my work as a research assistant on aerospace engineering projects involving Boeing and CAPS. In these roles, I supported work related to aircraft structures, manufacturing processes, and technical analysis.
How has UROP impacted your time at FSU?
UROP had a major impact on my time at FSU by helping me become more involved in research early in my academic career. Through UROP, I gained hands on experience working on real projects, developed stronger communication and critical thinking skills, and learned how research is conducted in a professional setting. It also helped me build connections with faculty, mentors, and other motivated students. Most importantly, UROP confirmed my interest in engineering research and gave me confidence to pursue more opportunities in aerospace and manufacturing.
Outside of academics, I enjoy graphic design, singing, fitness, and staying active. I also like spending time outdoors, traveling, and exploring new places. In my free time, I enjoy being creative through design projects and music, while also making time for friends, family, and new experiences.
