From R&D testing systems to consumer product development, here’s a selection of my work across co-ops, academic projects, and independent design challenges.
Led a team in designing an innovative insect capture device for my senior capstone project, winning “Best Iterative Design” award through systematic design refinement and user-centered problem solv...
Designed custom test fixtures for autoinjector safety syringes at Instron, managing the full development cycle from initial concept through CNC production while navigating complex geometric constra...
Designed a precision camera calibration fixture for Instron’s testing systems, applying GD&T principles, exact constraint theory, and design for manufacturing to ensure repeatable positioning a...
Redesigned an outdoor grill/oven handle to reduce surface temperatures at user touchpoints, iterating through multiple prototypes to balance thermal performance, ergonomics, and manufacturing const...
Solved an uneven browning issue in the Ninja Combi cooker through rapid prototyping and testing of airflow modifications, leading to design changes that were implemented in the mass-produced product.
Designed and 3D printed detailed scale models of products from my co-op experiences—recreating complex assemblies entirely from memory using full-color multi-material printing and functional featur...
