A variety of past and present projects...
As the project manager of Olin Rocketry, I lead a student project team developing high power rockets, including avionics, composite structures, and airbrakes.
I led the mechanical design and manufacturing of a palletized L-band satellite ground station to recieve data from weather satellites.
I used original drawings and references to design and fabricate a functioning display of the mechanism within a Gyralight, a type of oscillating railroad safety light.
I have diabetes and I hate charging my insulin pump. I designed a hot-swappable external battery for my insulin pump using a custom PCB and an FDM 3D printed housing.
I have been a long-time fan of the AEM-7 electric locomotive, and I was recently able to purchase a number of parts from the retired locomotives. I am in the process of restoring and cleaning the components and I plan to build an accurate control desk to house them.
I designed and machined an adjustable split flap display as part of a group project.
I designed a scale model of the F40PH passenger locomotive for laser cutting.
Group project for which we designed a Rube Goldberg-esque marble run
I built a display of the cross-section of a railroad track using genuine hardware I acquired from my local transit agency.
