ABOUT ME
I am a 4th year, combined Bachelors/Masters student from the Rochester Institute of Technology (RIT) in the United States, where I study biomedical engineering, as well as minors in astrophysics and math. Currently, I am working in the Neuromuscular Control and Biomechanics Laboratory (NCBL) at the University of Alberta as a summer research intern through the MITACS Program. My research interests primarily consist of prosthetic design for disaster relief and low income areas as well as rehabilitation/assistive robotics, however, I also occasionally work with medical imaging through MRI, high powered rocketry design, and extragalactic astrophysics/cosmology. Outside of academics, I enjoy rock climbing, archery, and watching movies with friends (or my two cats).
