Hobbies

  • UAV Creation
    I have worked in teams to design and fabricate different UAVs in the past and I wish to work forward and begin creating more independently.
  • CFD Analysis
    I have dabbled in OpenFOAM on my own quite a bit. I like to occasionally run some cases on simple setups which might be interesting relative to work I am currently assigned.
