About Me

Engineering student passionate about healthcare innovation

I'm currently pursuing a B.S. in Biomedical Engineering with a Biomechanics focus at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, expected graduation May 2027. I entered university with 50 college credits and advanced directly to engineering coursework, achieving full standing in the BME major after my freshman year.

My journey combines rigorous academic training with hands-on manufacturing engineering experience. At Sussex IM, I've worked on SCADA system overhauls, OEE tracking implementation, and HMI interface programming for automation lines. This practical experience complements my biomedical engineering coursework perfectly.

I'm particularly interested in the intersection of healthcare, automation, and engineering—developing solutions that improve patient outcomes and streamline medical processes. My computer science certificate enhances my ability to create data-driven solutions in the healthcare space.
