Cal Poly SLO 27'
Biomedical Enigneers study and enhance the most complex, efficient, and truly miraculous thing ever created - the human body.
Projects
IV League, Pismo, and Biomechanics LabBiomechanics Lab
Movement analysis and biomechanics - how the body moves and what forces are excerted on it.
IV League — Biomedical Make-a-thon
Developed a low-cost stabilization device to improve IV placement success in moving ambulances. KISS: Keep It Simple.
Prosthetic Leg — Pismo the Dog
Collaborated on a prosthetic solution for Pismo, the three-legged dog. The real challenge: identifying the actual problem - pismo could run just fine, it was the walking that hurt.
Anatomy
Took Anatomy with an emphasis on the nervous system. Performed several dissections and had the rare opportunity to hold an actual human brain. Final practical: identifying labeled anatomical structures on cadavers in real time.

A few areas I've worked inHands-on build
Manufacturing, tools, and making things that work in the real world.
Tensile testing
Using a tensile strength tester to evaluate materials under different conditions and compare performance.
Saltwater Rust Machine
Designing controlled corrosion tests to compare how materials hold up across environments.
EEG + imaging
Weekend MATLAB course exploring EEG imaging and signal interpretation — learning how brain data becomes something usable.
Collaborate
If you're building something around the body, mind or other environments — I'm interested.
