Moorestown, NJIn My Own Words
Currently a 2017, Virginia Tech, 5th year, student. Background is focused on mechanical engineering with a minor in biomedical engineering where I had the opportunity to study biomimicry & lead my senior design capstone project; creating an adjustable bike seat. My internships and co-ops have given me the knowledge of various power plants (renewable verse non-renewable) and operations across the world. My technical background with my work experience pushes me towards my desire to continue to design more efficient and sustainable outdoor gear and wear. Extremely passionate about the outdoors and all that gets the next person moving.
