I am an interdisciplinary student with knowledge and training in both business analytics and engineering. I have completed the Business Analytics Masters Program at the McCombs School of Business and achieved Mechanical Engineering Honors at the Cockrell School of Engineering at UT Austin. With a strong background in CAD design engineering, problem solving, and data-driven decision making, I am eager and well-equipped to develop innovative solutions to complex problems. The purpose of this portfolio is to showcase the projects I completed during my undergraduate and graduate education.
