About

I design robotics hardware that survives the real world.

From body-worn motion capture suits to bioprinting extruders and underwater ROVs, I've spent 3.5+ years turning sensor-dense electromechanical concepts into production-ready assemblies. My work sits at the intersection of mechanical design, embedded hardware, and iterative prototyping.

I started in mechatronics at Ganpat University in India — competitive all-terrain vehicles, PLC-driven automation cells. That hands-on foundation led me to Next Big Innovation Labs in Bangalore, where I engineered bioprinting needle assemblies (76% cost cut) and pellet extruder systems (67% cost reduction) for multi-material 3D printing platforms.

At Arizona State University I completed my M.S. in Robotics and Autonomous Systems and led the mechanical design of Mesquite MoCap, an open-source inertial motion capture system. 100+ prototypes across 15+ hardware iterations, 80% reduction in fit rework, zero load-driven failures during verification. The work became a paper submitted to IEEE IoT Journal.

My approach is simple: iterate fast, validate with FEA and test data, and design for the person who has to assemble, service, and ship the thing. I care about GD&T done right, tolerance stacks that close, and prototypes that teach you something new every build.
