Summary

As a detail-oriented, well-organized, and highly driven Nuclear Engineering student at Texas A&M University, I am on track to graduate in May with a Bachelor's degree, aiming to further my education with a Master's and/or a Ph.D. in nuclear engineering or a related discipline. My academic and practical skills are rooted in nuclear engineering principles, supported by skilled coding abilities and data analysis techniques. Currently, I am actively involved in researching and designing an energy collection fusion reactor wall for the National Ignition Facility (NIF) at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL), serving as my capstone project. This experience illustrates my commitment to contributing to cutting-edge developments in nuclear technology.
