I'm passionate about design, engineering and aerospace. I funded and built my own 3D printer, which allows me to take commissions designing prints for others online. This in turn funded the tools and parts I needed to revive an abandoned '92 Miata, which I've since learned how to "wrench on" and continues to be a source of inspiration and independence. I’m a national merit finalist. I teach mathematics at a local tutoring company, and also earn through my viola playing and music mentorship at summer camps. I'm independent, capable and a voracious learner.
