I’m a student in ECE 4960: Fast Robots.

About me

Coming from central Virginia, I’m finishing my M.Eng. in mechanical engineering at Cornell University this fall, with one in-person class.

I chose to take ECE 4960 for several reasons:

• I’m so interested in robots that, after spending all of high school on a robotics team, I also spent all of undergrad on Cornell Mars Rover.
• It will help me with my master’s project (see my other GitHub repo).
• I think it will be really fun.

Even though I have 19 credits, there are times I’m not studying or building robots.

• I follow Jesus. That’s not a hobby, but a commitment that weaves into the rest of my life.
• I’ve been playing piano (especially classical music) even longer than I’ve been working on robots.
• My laptop dual-boots Arch Linux and Windows.
