Involvemnts and Awards

A journey of research, innovation, and academic & professional achievements

BioMechatronics Lab

During my junior year at Northern Arizona University, I worked in the BioMechatronics Lab under Dr. Zachary Lerner, focusing on robotic aids to improve mobility for the elderly and individuals with physical challenges. I assisted researchers in data collection from volunteer patients testing devices like ankle and elbow motors and developed a Python script to analyze trends and predict aid effectiveness. This experience strengthened my skills in data analysis, programming, and professional collaboration.

Rocket and Energy Club

Throughout my sophomore year of college, I actively participated in the Rocket Club, working with senior members to build, assemble, and test rockets. I’ve always been fascinated by the subject, and I thoroughly enjoyed learning about the fluid dynamics of rocket launches. It was both an exciting and rewarding experience

On the other hand, I am an active member of the NAU Energy Club, where we aim to engage younger students and raise awareness about the world of renewable energy. During our weekly meetings, we share experiences, have meaningful yet fun conversations, and work to connect with industry professionals. It’s a fantastic way to build connections and participate in impactful events.
