Coursework has been engaging, but my true excitement lies in applying theoretical concepts to hands-on projects that allow me to unleash my creativity. I thrive on the opportunity to innovate and find novel solutions to real-world problems, constantly pushing the boundaries of what I know. I view every project as a chance to absorb new insights and perspectives, recognizing the collective strength of a team.

Wood and Metalworking
I have been wood and metal working for 5+ years, in school and on my own time. There are some examples of my projects on my portfolio.
CNC Milling Machine
My brother and I are currently building our own CNC milling machine in our garage. We have rails for the X and Y directions, with a router attached to them. It is already functional, but we have to move it manually. Within the next few months we will have vertical rails as well as motors and arduinos to control the motion of the router using code.
Acura TSX
I repaired my broken Acura TSX which required me to research and diagnose the issue. It turned out to be the the starter that was malfunctioning. I ordered a new one, and installed it which required some techinical skills. I broke a few bolts and learned a lot about mechanical systems. I have also done changed the broke rotors and oil using nothing but a pair of pliers. Now that I have some real tools I plan on installing a turbo to give the car some real power.
