Recent (Personal) Projects:










Roth Regatta Boats:


During my undergrad, I was responsible for structural design and lead construction on all of these boats. The first and last ones made it to the semifinal, the middle two made it to the final (top 6 out of approximately 60 teams) in Stony Brook's Roth Regatta, an annual cardboard and duct-tape boat race. This is probably my favorite extracurricular event at Stony Brook University.
