03About
I'm a Wesleyan University student double majoring in Physics and Integrated Design, Engineering, Arts & Society, with a concentration in Mechanical & Materials Engineering.
I'm a researcher in the Voth Fluid Dynamics Group, course instructor for a forum in 3D printing, monitor for the university's makerspace, course assistant for physics and engineering courses, and co-founder of WesEngineering, Wesleyan's first engineering club. Before college I raced as a UCI-licensed cyclist in India and designed and built my own aerodynamic equipment.
