Every project is an opportunity to learn, to figure out problems and challenges, to invent and reinvent. -D. Rockwell

Since childhood, the fusion of creativity and hands-on building has been my driving force. My grandfather, a skilled machinist, was instrumental in cultivating this passion. He taught me not only the practical skills required for building but also the creative mindset necessary to transform abstract ideas into tangible creations. Guided by the lessons of learning from every mistake and the importance of innovative thinking, I've shaped my career and personal life around this philosophy. This approach has fueled my work on diverse projects—each one a unique manifestation of creative thought and meticulous design.
As you peruse my portfolio, you're not just viewing my work, but a journey of creativity and commitment. Each project, a story of an idea brought to life, a problem solved, or a design refined. Along this journey, I've been fortunate to learn from amazing mentors who have enriched my understanding and expanded my horizons. Their wisdom, combined with a relentless pursuit of knowledge, has been a cornerstone of my growth.

Cornell Program: Applied Machine Learning and AI

I'm excited to share that I’ve recently begun a journey to expand my Python skills and dive deeper into the world of machine learning! As part of a new certificate program, I’m learning how to develop machine learning solutions through an ethical and inclusive lens. The program covers everything from exploring the ML lifecycle and common packages to analyzing large datasets with industry-relevant tools. By the end, I’ll have hands-on experience building workflows and optimizing models from scratch—skills I’m eager to apply to real-world challenges!

Theme Park Stroller

This was a fun project that my two year old and I decided we needed to do. Using individually addressable LED strips, speaker, audio controller, Arduino, battery pack, and a 3D printed pendant with buttons we were able to make her stroller come to life! This project has been so much fun watching others smile and dance to the different scenes.

Mini Cooper S - 2005 - R52 Salvage Yard to Show Car

One of my hobbies is designing custom car and motorcycle parts and the Mini Cooper is a car I've always wanted the opportunity to work on. So, when I found this 2005 Mini with manual transmission sinking into the ground at a salvage yard I decided to bring it back to life, with some style!
