About Me
I am a freshman at Duke University currently pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Biomedical Engineering with an emphasis on Medical Devices and Bioelectricity. Throughout the next three years, I want to explore mathematics, computer science, and philosophy at a higher level. I intend on going into the medical device industry after attending graduate school.
Random Interests
I enjoy watching most sports, especially soccer, basketball, and football. Frogs are my favorite type of animal, and I own a fire-bellied toad named Webster. My favorite movie is Escape Room (2019), and I have completed over fifteen escape rooms in the past few years. I prefer being outdoors, especially in typical North Carolina weather.

Engineering Projects
I am a student in EGR 102 during the Spring 2023 semester, and my group is named the Duke Ultrasound Grip Group. We are designing an ergonomic grip cover to go over the handle of an ultrasound transducer. This grip cover is intended to alleviate strain on the ultrasound technician's hands while performing scans. Our team has tested our product at the Duke Perinatal Clinic and the UNC Emergency Hospital Department.
