MY BACKGROUND
About me.
I’m studying Engineering at Iron Range Engineering, Minnesota State University, Mankato, with a focus on manufacturing opportunities.
I like understanding a problem, comparing possible solutions, and checking that the work meets its requirements. On my current team project, that means researching cooling concepts, building an Excel decision matrix, and developing my skills in modeling and testing.
My ABET-accredited Engineering program combines mechanical and electrical studies, manufacturing processes, design, and analysis with industry-sponsored project work. I’m looking for internships and co-ops through my graduation in December 2028, where I can contribute to practical improvements and learn from experienced engineers.
