I am a Freshman at Cornell and plan to major in mechanical engineering with a minor in computer science. I am crazy about robotics and compete at an international level. I also enjoy creating DIY engineering and coding projects. This summer, I had the honor of interning at Gentle Care, a medical robotics startup founded by MIT professor Harry Asada and Ravi Tejwani. 

I interned at an MIT-founded medical robotics startup called Gentle Care. I designed and built prototypes for soft robotic medical devices. I worked with a small team of four people to create novel prototypes and contributed major improvements to the design. I also interviewed nurses to obtain feedback used to improve product features. This hands-on experience gave me an invaluable glimpse into the world of mechanical engineering,  including technical development and customer interactions in the healthcare tech space.
I also helped design patent infographics used to effectively communicate our product ideas to the patent lawyers.
