I measure things until they are right. Manufacturing efficiency at Polaris, metrology and quality on an EV line at BYD Uzbekistan, and the mechanical side of CropSCOUT.

About

a mechanical engineer who likes tolerances

Mechanical Engineering undergraduate at Arizona State University, reading for a BSE in Mechanical Engineering Systems, based in Mesa, Arizona.

Summer 2026 I am a Manufacturing Engineering Intern at Polaris in Roseau County, Minnesota, placed through the Minnesota Technical Assistance Program — analysing compressed air systems, shielding gas distribution, natural gas consumption and material recovery, looking for the energy and the waste.

The summer before that I was on the floor at BYD Uzbekistan, the country's largest EV plant, in General Assembly and CMM. A hundred vehicles a day come off that line; I measured one of them, every day, for ten weeks.

At BESTARORG I work on the mechanical side of CropSCOUT, an autonomous robot for greenhouses and small vegetable farms.
