Although the personal aspects of my daily life with friends and family are not greatly emphasized on this site, much of the person I am today has been molded by these elements of my past. Here is where I pay respect to those people who have dearly inspired me and the events which have molded the principles and values I honor in my life.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<h3><a href=\/professional>Professional<\/a><\/h3>\r\nHere&apos;s a snapshot of my current professional status (<a href=http:\/\/www.buffalo.edu\/ target=_blank>University at Buffalo<\/a>):\r\n<ul>\r\n<li>Ph.D. student in mechanical engineering (dynamics controls and mechatronics)<\/li>\r\n<li>Teaching Assistant in the department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering<\/li>\r\n<li>Member of the <a href=http:\/\/mechatronics.eng.buffalo.edu\/ target=_blank>Automation, Robotics, and Mechatronics Laboratory (ARMLAB)<\/a><\/li>\r\n<li>President of the <a href=https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/UB.MAE.GSA target=_blank>Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering Graduate Student Association (MAE-GSA)<\/a><\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<p>Check out the <a href=\/professional>Professional<\/a> page for my <strong>detailed digital resume including live links to additional supporting content<\/strong>.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<h3><a href=\/project>Project<\/a><\/h3>\r\n<p>You&apos;ll come to realize through my <a href=\/bio>Bio<\/a> and <a href=\/professional>Professional<\/a> pages that I am very passionate about learning and creating new things (typically involving technology). As a student, I have embarked upon many academic and research-oriented projects, but these documented works (see: <a href=\/professional>Professional<\/a>) do not fully describe my technical project repertoire.
