About Me
Mechanical engineer building practical robotic and manufacturing systems.
My background combines Mechanical Engineering training from Princeton and UC Berkeley with product design and manufacturing work at Toyota, Xos, and Tesla. I work where mechanical systems meet software: modeling robot behavior, tuning controllers, wiring embedded hardware, and turning early ideas into measurable test platforms.
I like problems with moving parts: sensors, mechanisms, controller behavior, imperfect data, and the practical details that decide whether a system actually works.
Background
B.S.E. from Princeton University in Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering.
Active M.Eng student at UC Berkeley in Mechanical and Robotics Engineering.
Product design and manufacturing experience at Toyota, Xos, and Tesla.
Current focus at Tesla spans hardware, software, controls, and manufacturing systems.
How I approach engineering
I start by making the system measurable, then use logs, simulations, and physical tests to see what is really happening.
I am comfortable crossing disciplines: CAD, embedded firmware, control loops, robot simulation, and data analysis.
I care about clear tradeoffs, especially when mechanical constraints, software timing, and real hardware behavior collide.
