My purpose is to use engineering as a way to serve others, ensuring the technology people rely on every day is safe, sustainable, and dependable. I find deep meaning in bridging the gap between abstract science and the real-world needs of the people I’m building for. I pursue this during college by treating my education as a constant conversation between theory and practice. I dive into the "why" in my classrooms at UCF, then immediately look for ways to apply that knowledge in my professional and research roles. By moving between the lab and the industry, I’m learning how to be a more grounded, thoughtful engineer. My goal is to remain a curious, humble student,one who never stops learning and who is always focused on leaving every project, and every team I work with, better than I found them.
