Volumetric Additive Manufacturing
Building MIT’s first tomographic volumetric 3D printer with Prof. TJ Wallin, connecting polymers, optics, and computation.
Engineering across disciplines
Understand how things work. Imagine how they might work better.
Engineering problems rarely fit within a single field. I work across materials science, manufacturing, and computation to tackle some of the hardest (and most fun!) challenges in deep tech.
A few things I’ve worked on
Selected projects
Magprint: Magnetically Aligned SLA
An SLA printer built around a rotating Halbach array to control magnetic alignment during fabrication.
Ultra-High Temperature Solar Thermal Air Receiver
On-sun test engineering, optical simulation, and technoeconomic modeling for a silicon carbide solar thermal air receiver.
Autonomous Vehicle for Solar Thermal Maintenance
Leading autonomy and guidance development for ICARUS, a prototype vehicle for autonomous heliostat cleaning.
Background
A little context.
I work as a materials science and engineering PhD candidate at MIT. Before pursuing graduate research, I studied engineering at Harvey Mudd College and worked on renewable energy projects at Heliogen and HGenium, startups within the Idealab incubator. These experiences shaped what I enjoy most: bringing together different disciplines to build new technologies that challenge what's possible.
