A self-motivated and result-driven graduate student pursuing a master's degree in Mechanical engineering from Michigan Technological University with a specialization in Design and Manufacturing.
I have undergone two internships with OEMs related to the Automotive sector where I demonstrated my mechanical skills and knowledge for the timely completion of projects related to Crankshaft and Gas Spring manufacturing and development. These internships helped me gain more industrial hands-on experience related to product design and manufacturing. Completion of several projects during my internships and coursework helped me emerge as a team leader and critical thinker and develop interpersonal skills like time management and quick learning.
