Applications Engineer at VMC Group
Applications Engineer
My passion is building. Several of my projects have spawned from my garage, while others are the product of collaboration with other creators at Rutgers University. As part of the Honors Academy, my course work was more challenging, allowing me to display my excellence in both the Design and Development project and Senior Capstone project. I was the manufacturing lead at the Rutgers Chapter of AIAA, where I helped build multiple RC planes for AIAA DBF competitions. I actively participate in the Space Technology Association of Rutgers, and have led several projects, most notably an expedition to capture data from a satellite with an RF antenna. I am also a member of Operation Space, the first intercollegiate team of students planning to break the Karman line. We hope to launch sometime soon.

I’d like to use my knowledge and skills to pursue a career in Design, Manufacturing or Quality Control. My experience has taught me that production processes have a massive effect on the outcome of any project. I find it exciting that as an engineer I have the unique opportunity to change the world.

Completely trivial fact:  One of my hobbies is playing chess. The fact that each move is a new decision branching out into endless possibilities is exhilarating. Much like in engineering, every choice has trade-offs.
