Biography

I’ve graduated from UIUC in 2024 (B.S in MechE), with prior work on CAPsLock – a cooling cap system for hair loss prevention in breast cancer patients, afterwards I joined HDCL in August 2024. Currently I’m focusing on my master’s thesis- the creation of a prototype for the Pneumatic Cushion for Pressure Injury Prevention Project, with a goal of graduating in May 2026. (Yay!)
