Jun 2023 - Aug 2023
Completed three-month mechanical engineering internship at Alef Aeronautics, a Silicon Valley aerospace startup led by CEO Jim Dukhovny and backed by early Tesla investor Tim Draper. At Alef's headquarters in San Mateo, California, I worked directly with Constantine Kisly (Co-Founder & Director of Engineering) to help create the world's first fully electric, street-legal, flying car. I worked on the car chassis, retractable wheel suspension system, 2-axis rotating passenger cabin, and carbon fiber body shell. • Solidworks design, both individual parts and larger assemblies. • Structural integrity testing using FEA software. • Vacuum bagging & curing of pre-preg carbon fiber and kevlar for body panels & ailerons. • CNC machining of carbon fiber layup molds. • Operating manufacturing equipment such as drill presses, jigsaws, sanders, angle grinders, and belt grinders. • Physical material fracture analysis. • 3D printing with Nylon, PETG-CF, and liquid resin. • Helping showcase company development to current investors, interested VCs, and the press.

In this remote internship, my focus was on enhancing web accessibility for the California Citizens Redistricting Commission website. In an effort to alleviate the team from weeks of manual work, I developed a new platform for accessibility automation using AI. This system is capable of downloading, renaming, matching, and simultaneously interpreting PDF content and Excel sheets, and has successfully processed thousands of government files so far.
