I am a Mechanical Engineering graduate student at MIT with a healthy obsession for designing and making things.

​

After receiving my undergraduate degree from the University of Alberta, I worked briefly as a Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) consultant before returning to graduate school to pursue my love for mechanical design.

​

Stationed at the GEAR Lab, I now design, prototype, and test scalable technology for resource-constrained communities. My specific research is focused on the development of affordable desalination for drinking water production.
