Bio

I am a materials scientist and engineer(MSE). I have a bachelors from Michigan Technological Uniersity(MTU) and am working on my masters. One of my dreams is to make a meaningful positive impact on the world to improve the overall standard of living. I intend to do this by becoming the best MSE that I can. I am a senior member of the Michigan Tech's Open Sustainability Technology (MOST) Research Group. My particular interests are focused around sustainability and discovering novel additive manufacturing applications utilizing unconventional printing materials. Additionally, I have great enthusiasm for understanding and manipulating micro and nano scale material surfaces and associated energies for creative material selection and usage. Lastly, I sincerely hope to one day help mankind move towards colonizing space through the usage of 3D printing.

Research

My masters research will be focused on developing a method of low cost synthesis of perovskite solar cells. This project will increase our understanding of perovskites and how they can be 3D printed and fabricated into solar cells.

Interests

• 3D Printing
• Nanotechnology
• Renewable energy
• Outer Space
• Innovative materials
• Product design
• Manufacturing processes
• Material property optimization
