Since I was a young child, I have been impassioned about mechanical engineering due to its limitless possibilities. During my time in school, I viewed a great deal of engineering-related television, which increased my interest in the subject. I attended college to pursue a degree in mechanical engineering because I was impassioned about the field. I attended lectures, conducted research, wrote papers, and participated in academic competitions in order to acquire a firm foundation in knowledge.

Through apprenticeships, industrial visits, and in-plant training, I also gained practical experience that enhanced my knowledge and understanding of mechanical engineering practices. I am proficient with AutoCAD, SolidWorks, Creo, Ansys Workbench, Ansys Mechanical APDL, simulation in MATLAB, and Simulink, as well as Lean Manufacturing, 5S, Failure Modes and Effective Analysis, and Bill of Materials.

As a highly motivated student of mechanical engineering, I intend to use opportunities in product design, testing, and validation to advance an organization and my own professional growth.
