Bio

I am currently a senior at UMD studying Mechanical Engineering with a minor in Materials Engineering. I was born in Chicago but was raised in the Twin Cities area, though I spent a lot of my childhood visiting family back in Chicago. I enjoy taking apart things and putting things together which attracted me to Mechanical Engineering, whether it's legos or old gaming consoles. I love learning about the moving parts of all kinds of stuff!

 
In my spare time I enjoy reading comic books, playing war games, and any video game I can sink 1000 hours into. If you want to get me talking just ask me anything about Batman. 
 
I joined the office in hopes to learn more about how sustainability works, both on the business side and the implementation process, so I can take that knowledge to help the world. I hope to work in the sustainable energy field when I graduate, I'm personally super interested in hydro power.
