Materials Scientist · Roboticist · Inventor
Materials scientist specializing in hydrogen storage, advanced characterization, metallurgical sciences, semiconductor manufacturing, and the path from lab-scale discovery to real-world applications.
About
I'm materials scientist and engineer who recently graduated from Worcester Polytechnic Institute with degrees in Materials Science & Engineering (M.S.) and Robotics Engineering (B.S.). My graduate research focused on developing new materials for hydrogen storage, for which I was recognized by the National Academy of Inventors for progress in the field.
Outside the lab, I'm Co-Founder & CEO of Phoebus American Energy Systems, a pre-seed startup focused on further developing and commercializing my hydrogen storage technology. I'm also an automotive and motorsports enthusiast, and it's a long-term goal of mine to apply my skills in that field.
I am drawn to work which sits at the intersect of product engineering, electrical engineering, and materials science, and that which brings inventions from the laboratory to industry standard.
