Two Tesla internships. Mechanical Engineer, then Software Data Engineer. Worked on CyberTruck and Model S/3/X/Y.

Two years on Pack Motorsports FSAE, aero team. CFD, FEA, carbon fiber. I built race cars before I built products.
BS Mech E with a CS minor at NC State. Two research labs: one where I taught cars to drive themselves with RL, and one where I grew lung phantoms out of hydrogel.
