About

I am a recent graduate from the University of Pittsburgh. I worked as a student researcher for three years at the University of Pittsburgh with various responsibilities. My independent projects concerned the Johnson-Rahbek Effect in polymers, a 3D graph in MATLAB Simulink for a position sensor, and a physical therapy control system using electromyography signals. Junior year I had a co-op rotation at Norfolk Southern Corporation where I performed numerous tasks related to process improvement. In addition to my career related work, I studied abroad in Germany for a semester, and am a part of multiple organizations on campus including Theta Tau, a professional engineering fraternity, and the University Handbell Ensemble.
