Projects
Golf Club Aerodynamics
Wind-tunnel testing of driver heads, measuring drag & lift of high-end vs. low-end models
RC Vehicle Optimization
Reverse-engineered a Traxxas RC car into a parametric CAD model; CFD, FEA, and topology optimization led to a 47% drag reduction and 24% weight cut
CAD Apartment Design
Created a Revit model and AutoCAD layout for “Swan Dive” apartment complex; focused on efficiency, aesthetics, and natural light across a five-story design
AM Shot Peening Research
xplored interlayer shot peening to manage residual stress in LPBF-printed 316L stainless steel parts; high-frequency peening (P20) produced deeper, beneficial compressive stress zones
Audio Equalizer Circuit
Built a multi-band analog equalizer with low/mid/high filters, master volume, and power amplifier; met most performance targets with minor deviations in voltage tolerances
