Mechanical Engineering & Applied Mechanics

I just like making things.

I'm a Mechanical Engineering & Applied Mechanics student at the University of Pennsylvania, currently researching hydrogen-powered turbojet propulsion with Penn Jet Propulsion. Some days that means taking a SolidWorks model to a part in my hands through 3D printing and laser cutting — other days it means a track built from scratch in FL Studio. Same instinct, different tools.

Engineering Projects

Design & Manufacturing

CAD, CFD, and hands-on manufacturing — from parts modeled in SolidWorks and brought to life with 3D printing and laser cutting, to full simulation and analysis work. More projects added as they're finished.

Music Production

Writing, producing, and mixing music in FL Studio, alongside piano and guitar.

When I'm not in SolidWorks, I'm usually in FL Studio. I write and produce my own music and post it to YouTube under noskeeeee — everything from beats to full mixes, start to finish.

More tracks and cover art are on the way — check back soon, or head over to the channel directly.

Research & Engineering Activities

Researcher / Engineer
Penn Jet Propulsion (Penn Aerospace Club)
Sept 2025 — Present
  • Conducting research to develop a hydrogen-powered turbojet, with an emphasis on combustion efficiency.
  • Applying SolidWorks for iterative micromixer modeling and CFD (Fluent) to simulate fluid and combustion dynamics of gas injection and chamber temperatures.
