Bio
As an aspiring engineer and entrepreneur (and a self-proclaimed expert on all things Disney), I have spent the past few years trying to convince myself that I actually know what I'm doing. With a binder full of certificates from various top universities (which I received after spending way too much time in front of a screen) and a burning desire to create positive change in the world, I am constantly seeking out new opportunities to learn and grow. And as someone born on February 8th, the day Disney Brothers Cartoon Studio was renamed to the iconic "Walt Disney Studios", I like to think I have a little bit of that Disney magic in me (or at least a knack for creating a decent mouse trap). My mission is to use my skills and expertise to start a business that addresses pressing societal challenges and makes a lasting impact. I hope to inspire and educate others on the power of engineering and entrepreneurship to drive positive change.
