About

I'm finishing a B.S. and M.S. in Mechanical Engineering at Georgia Tech in four years, with a 3.90 GPA, Faculty Honors (3x), and Dean's List (2x). I'm the Technology Director for the Interfraternity Council, after serving as its VP of Communications, and I sit on the Woodruff School Student Advisory Council. I've also been a Project Lead for ElectrifyGT and served on Delta Chi's Judicial Board and as its Scholarship Chair. Outside engineering I'm an Eagle Scout and former Senior Patrol Leader of Troop 1159, a pianist, and a drone photographer. I spent Spring 2026 studying at Universidad Carlos III de Madrid.
