Through Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE), I have developed my social, organizational, and leadership skills.  Being the mechanical lead of SAE Aero has taught me so much more than I ever would have expected about engineering.  I get to experience first hand that engineering is a social and collaborative field, and that your projects are only as strong as all the people involved.  No one person can design, test, and manufacture great engineering tech, and I try to show my team that all the work that they do is important.   

This is one reason why I love engineering.  Great engineers often are stereotyped as the socially awkward, quiet genius, and while many of us may be a bit socially awkward, I have learned that true engineering is not just one person quietly punching numbers on his calculator, it is many people who work hard and work together to accomplish their goals.

Technology is so amazing to me, and I love being involved in this field.  My goal for the future involved in amazing projects.  That is why I am interested in Aviation and Aerospace.  I want to be part of something that takes us off of the ground.  It is mind bending to me how humans have been able to create technology that even leaves our atmosphere, and it would be my dream to be a part of that.

I am the kind of person who loves to learn, and loves a challenge.  Some of my hardest classes in my educational career have been the classes that I tend to do the best at, and I would not have been able to do it without collaborating with my piers.  Conquering difficult challenges, as a group, to me that is engineering.

I have been a member of SAE since Fall of 2016, but I became Mechanical Lead for SAE Aero in Fall of 2018.  Through SAE, I have gained access to UCR's machine shop and I am machine trained on the mill. 
Our team, SAE Aero, is tasked with designing a remote control passenger plane - where the passengers are tennis balls - that has to fly a set course for competition.  We are judged on many aspects of are design, including amount of tennis balls carried, time it takes to load and unload the plane, how well we followed the set design rules, uniqueness of the plane, etc.  Through SAE I have gained experience in Solidworks (CAD), Matlab, leadership, project organization, and fundraising.
