Senior | Mechanical Engineering

I am a senior mechanical engineering student. I Interned previously at Arbe Robotics, an autonomous vehicle startup in Israel, where I worked on hardware design and layout. I also aided in research at Tel Aviv University in their wave mechanics research lab where I studied wave generation mechanisms. Looking forward I hope to pursue a career in the aerospace field.

This year I hope to innovate as fuselage lead and bring new ideas and methods to the design and construction of our plane with the lessons learned from last year’s competition.
