About
I am a second-year chemical engineering student at Virginia Tech building a strong foundation for a future career in the field. My motivation comes from a desire to solve meaningful problems, create impactful solutions, and contribute to technologies that improve everyday life. I am especially interested in areas such as sustainable materials, renewable energy, and the development of bio-based products. My current goals include deepening my chemical engineering expertise, gaining hands-on experience through research and collaborative projects, and preparing for future opportunities in innovation and process development. What excites me most about chemical engineering is the blend of creativity, problem-solving, and practical application—turning complex ideas into real, scalable solutions that make a difference.
