My Portfolio
Welcome to my portfolio. Here you’ll find a selection of my work. Click and explore any project you want to learn more details about.


Designing the Gear Train of a Dental Rotary Cutting Tool
The system is composed of a powered handpiece that transfers mechanical energy from an electric motor to a rotary burr. The design includes the motor input system, a burr shaft, power transmission system, support bearings, and a cutting burr that interacts with the biological materials (dentin, enamel, etc.). To meet functional and safety requirements, the system was evaluated using principles of mechanical design such as AGMA gear analysis, shear fatigue design//diagrams, bending and contact stress evaluation/diagrams, free-body analysis, and deflection analysis. This project uses CAD modeling, material selection, process refinement, and analytical stress calculations to develop a manufacturable rotary tool design with an emphasis on reliability and performance in its biological environment.
Analysis of Human Embryonic Stem Cell Treatment for Parkinson's Disease
This comprehensive group project analyzes peer-reviewed scientific literature on the use of human embryonic stem cells for treating Parkinson’s Disease across in vitro, in vivo, and clinical trial stages, completed in collaboration with undergraduate biological engineers in a regenerative medicine course. This detailed study demonstrates a professional approach to evaluating cutting-edge regenerative therapies, reflecting a strong foundation in interdisciplinary research and applied biomedical engineering.




Tetanus Vaccine Process Design
In this project, I worked with a team of five Biological Engineering undergraduates and designed a mock industrial production line for the tetanus vaccine using SuperPro Designer, meticulously classifying all inputs and outputs within the process. This comprehensive simulation showcases practical expertise in process design and industrial production modeling.
Cancer Detecting Raman Pen
For my senior capstone project featured, I am working with a team of undergraduate Biological Engineering students developing the a cancer detecting Raman spectrometer pen, a handheld prototype integrating a Raman spectrometer to enable rapid, intraoperative cancer detection. This innovative device aims to reduce reliance on time-consuming tissue biopsies, enhancing surgical precision and preserving healthy tissue during cancer removal.




CRISPR-Cas9 Cancer Gene Therapy
I completed this research project during my Summer Undergraduate Cancer Research Experience (SUCRE) Fellowship at the Louisiana Cancer Research Center. During my fellowship, I reseached under Dr. Sean Bong Lee, a professor at Tulane University studying the rare pediatric cancer Desmoplastic Small Round Cell Tumor (DSRCT).
My project involved creating eighteen different CRISPR-Cas9 vectors targeting genes HDAC 1-4. Then, I transfected tumor cells with the vectors to screen for HDAC gene dependencies.

Engineering a Nanoparticle Delivering Bandage
This research was completed as an personal independent project the third year of my undergraduate degree. I completed this project under the supervision and guidance of Post-Doctorate Dr. Thanida Chuecheron in Dr. Cristina Sabliov's nanoparticle laboratory at Louisiana State University.
This research tested the material properties and drug release profile of nanoparticle delivering gelatin bandages. The bandages were designed for topical use on skin.
After presenting my project at LSU's Discover Day, an annual undergraduate research conference, I placed third overall in the Visual Display category as well as third overall as an Individual Presentation in the College of Engineering.

Statistical Analysis of Nanoparticle Release
This is the final project from my Data Analysis and Mathematical Modeling class, where I conducted a regression analysis comparing three mathematical models using the Bayesian Information Criterion, posterior probabilities, and marginal likelihoods to identify the best-fitting model for nanoparticle release data. I used MatLab to perform the analysis and create visual graphs. This rigorous statistical analysis highlights my ability to apply advanced quantitative methods to real-world data and use MatLab as a computing and visual generating software.
Switch Adapting Musical Toy
In this project, I collaborated with a music teacher from Southdowns Elementary School and a fellow biological engineering student to enhance accessibility by integrating an external button into a musical plushie toy. This modification creates a more universally designed musical toy, enabling students of all abilities to engage and participate fully.




Designing an ADA Accessible Playground
At Louisiana State University (LSU), I collaborated with a team of Biological Engineering undergraduates to design an ADA-accessible playground for Southdowns Pre-K Center, ensuring wheelchair accessibility to accommodate students of all abilities. This project highlights a commitment to inclusive design and provided valuable experience in creating functional, equitable spaces for diverse communities.
Engineering a Water Collection Device
At Worcester Polytechnic Institute (WPI), I collaborated with fellow engineering undergraduates to design a household-scale water collection device that captures moisture from the foggy mountains of Kharga Oasis. This innovative dehumidifier aims to reduce reliance on depleted well water sources, addressing critical water scarcity challenges in the region.
