About Me

I'm a fifth year Mechanical Engineering student with Concentration in Aerospace, at the University of British Columbia - Okanagan Campus. I am an aspiring astronaut with an infectious love of learning, and a deep sense of curiosity and purpose. I received the prestigious Schulich Leader Scholarship in 2020 to support my studies.

Throughout my undergraduated, I have cumulated experience across space science and technology, biomedical research, engineering project management, and science journalism. I have led several successful design teams in humanitarian engineering and aerospace research.

Feel free to explore this page to take a deeper look into my work experience, projects, or read some of the articles I've written. You can download a professional copy of my CV or contact me at the bottom of the page. Thanks for checking out my website!
