1/100th Scale VIRGINIA Class Remote Control Submarine

I designed this 1/100th scale remote control Virginia Class Submarine in SolidWorks and 3D printed each hull section using my own 3D printer. Everything except the electronics has been built from scratch. From calculating buoyancy force to designing control surface linkages, this has been one of my most ambitious projects to date!

Remote Control 3D Printed F1 Powerboat

3D printed, 100% self designed, created for speed. This F1 Powerboat is still in the design stage but it will be a fully functioning remote control boat with a goal to reach 50 miles per hour. The powerboat will also feature a first person view camera that will transmit live video to a virtual reality headset so that the operator can have an immersive and realistic experience.

3D Printed RC Outboard

This is my scale RC Outboard that I designed from the ground-up. Each piece of the outboard was designed in SolidWorks and 3D printed using my own 3D printer. This will be used to power my RC F1 Powerboat project! I created a fully functional prototype and now I am working on the second version!

Clarkson University ChemECar

The premise of ChemECar is to create a small vehicle that can be powered and stopped by two separate and distinct chemical reactions. I designed, built, and programmed all of the electronics used to analyze these chemical reactions. The car I designed- "Cherry Red!”- took 1st place at the 2018 Northeast regional competition. “Cherry Red!” took 4th place at the 2018 ChemECar World Championship against 130 competitors from leading universities around the globe!

Clarkson University Formula SAE Aerodynamics

For my senior design project I set out to design an aerodynamics package for the 2019 Clarkson University FSAE vehicle. I created a custom IMU to determine longitudinal and lateral acceleration of the previous year’s car and analyzed the data with MATLAB. From here I was able to determine my design criteria. After several design revisions I created a 30% scale prototype that was tested in the Clarkson University wind tunnel to determine downforce and drag. Click the image to go to the FSAE project page!

Metal/Welded Sculptures

I make sculptures out of steel. Currently I have made lobsters, whales, fish, and crabs. I am currently working on starting a side business selling my art work!

Remote Control Airplanes

This was my original reason for getting into RC. I started making planes out of foam board from scratch. For every successful flight there were at least 5 crashes! I learned a ton from building RC planes and they became my inspiration for the RC Submarine and the F1 Powerboat.

275 Gallon BBQ Smoker Trailer

This is my BBQ smoker trailer made from a 275 gallon drum, an old boat trailer, and scrap metal. I built this using my own welding and metalworking equipment. Please click on the image to go to the BBQ Smoker Trailer page!
