About
With a robust educational foundation in engineering, I hold a Master of Science in Engineering Management from The George Washington University and a Bachelor of Science in Aerospace Engineering from the University of Maryland. My career began with an engineering internship at Alcore, where I honed my skills in materials management and CAD design. I then contributed to the V-22 Analysis & Repair team at Bell Flight, ensuring aircraft integrity. As a System Engineer at LS Technologies, I played a key role in system design and maintenance. Currently, I serve as a Product Manager at Alarm.com, where I oversee product development and market alignment. My experience also includes a collaborative project with AIAA, where my team designed a stowable RC plane, achieving a commendable 14th place in a global competition. My journey reflects a commitment to innovation and excellence in engineering and product management.
