// ABOUT_ME.txt
Sophomore studying Materials Science & Engineering at Texas A&M (Class of 2028), originally from San Jose, CA. I research high-entropy alloy powders and interstitial alloying in the Lavernia Group, and explore simulation-assisted materials design in the Arroyave Group.
This summer I'm interning at Covalent in San Jose, bringing research experience into industry. As an Eagle Scout, I'm always looking for the next hard problem.

// EXPERIENCE
01 / EXPERIMENTAL
Processing fundamentals and physical behavior of advanced structural materials. Focus on nanostructured alloys, high-entropy alloy systems, and additive manufacturing. Understanding how processing determines microstructure at every length scale.
02 / COMPUTATIONAL
Simulation-assisted materials design bridging atomic-scale calculations with microstructure evolution and property prediction. Work spans CALPHAD thermodynamics, phase field modeling, and AI-enabled materials discovery.
03 / INDUSTRY — SUMMER 2026
Incoming intern at Covalent, a materials company based in San Jose, CA. Bringing research experience in advanced alloy systems into an industry setting. Translating lab work into real-world materials applications.
