Engineering Profile

Building a strong foundation in mechanical engineering with a focus on aerospace systems.

I am a first-year Mechanical Engineering student at the University of Manitoba, driven by a long-standing fascination with flight systems and mechanical design.

Early Interest in Engineering

My journey into engineering began with a curiosity about how complex machines operate under extreme conditions. I was always drawn to the precision required to make things fly, which naturally led me toward exploring mechanical systems and aerospace concepts.

Engineering Education

Currently, my academic focus is on building a strong foundation in physics, calculus, and the core principles of mechanical engineering. I approach my coursework as the fundamental tools needed to solve real-world engineering problems across various industries, from energy to aerospace.

Academic Research with
Future Engineering Goals

A significant portion of my early engineering exploration has been through structured academic research. Projects like my Physics Internal Assessment on projectile motion and my Extended Essay on airfoil glide performance have allowed me to apply theoretical physics to practical, analytical investigations.

The Extended Essay, in particular, was born from a personal curiosity about whether an aircraft could glide safely if forced to land without an airport. This led to a systematic exploration of airfoil glide performance using scaled-down models and simulations. These experiences have honed my skills in experimental design, data interpretation, and technical writing.

My long-term goal is to continue learning and growing toward work that supports future aerospace systems through strong engineering fundamentals and data-informed problem solving. I am actively seeking internship opportunities where I can further develop my technical skills in mechanical design, simulation, and hardware assembly.
