Man: He/Him
I completed my secondary school at American Heritage School, Plantation, Florida. I am currently a Junior College Undergrad studying Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering at New York University in Brooklyn, NY.
With a diverse background in tissue dissection,
CRISPR techniques and pharma I intend to tackle
the hardest unsolved problems during my career.
My experience with projects involving AI, high-performance computing software development, prototyping and hands on lab experience are my
backbone into any field.
Solving problems is what I enjoy most in life. To be a good problem solver, one needs two things: to truly understand what needs to be solved and knowing what tools are available to solve it effectively. Given that, my critical thinking skills assist me in carefully dissecting any problem, while my wide range of knowledge serves as my tools to efficiently solve them.
My best skill is communication. I am used to having multiple problems with limited time and resources to solve. Being able to make connections easily provides me with great advantages in my realm of work.
Besides speaking Portuguese, Spanish, English, and moderate Mandarin here is a list of other qualities I endow.
Once president of an entrepreneurship group that participated in business competitions, such as the diamond challenge and FBLA, I carry with me a thriving background in business and financial literacy, having taken college-level courses and work experience.
3D Modeler. I work best on AutoDesk Software, such as Fusion 360, Inventor, Maya, AutoCAD & Edge. However, I can effectively use SolidWorks, Onshape, Blender, Rhino and Shapr3D.I make posters, business cards, print 3D figures, Factory Design and other related visual graphics.
Basic Coding skills: capable of building apps, small scale hacking, and creating bots.Can design and manufacture circuit boards; Basic experience on LPKF, Fritzing, Easy EDA, Cadence & Altium.Previous projects include SAE, FRC, FTC, SECME & VEX.
The photo displayed won a photography competition at NYU.I worked on digital media projects in the past that targeted large media audiences. I am knowledgeable using streaming platforms, OBS, Audacity, and Video editing software such as DaVinci Resolve. I also worked with digital mixers, such as X32 from Behringer for bands.
Theoretical knowledge of the human body based on HOSA guidelines.Experience in data collection & testing for mass production.Non-commercial pharmaceutical expertise.First aid training licensed by MD doctor.
