A little about me.
I'm a mechanical engineering student at Iowa State, graduating May 2028. I'm interested in design, product development, and manufacturing. During my internship at Caterpillar, I built test hardware, helped troubleshoot electrical systems, and wrote setup instructions for future teams. I've also worked on a Formula SAE battery cart and a wind turbine class project.
Outside of engineering, I play club soccer at Iowa State and have an interest in cars.
Get in touch.
I'm looking for a summer 2027 internship or a co-op in 2027.
If my experience looks like a fit for your team, I'd be happy to talk.
