I was enrolled in the 4+1 program at ASU and graduated in May 2020 with a 4.0 GPA. I was a part of the Ira A. Fulton Schools of Engineering. I successfully defended my thesis which focused on creating a water rescue and location device using suction stabilized floats, ultra-wideband locator modules and internet of things.

I was a 4.0 honors student. I was a part of the Ira A. Fulton Schools of Engineering and Barrett, the Honors College. I completed my undergraduate honors thesis, Women in Engineering: Past, Present, and Future.
