MECH Lead<br>Education: BEng Mechanical Engineering, 1st year Masters in Autonomous Robotics<br><br>I recently completed my undergraduate degree in Mechanical Engineering and will be starting a Master of Applied Science (MSc) in Engineering at Dalhousie University in May 2026. Originally from Lima, Peru, I came to Canada to pursue post-secondary education. Over time, I was drawn to stay in Nova Scotia because of its connection to the ocean and the many opportunities available in ocean science and technology.      <br><br>                                                                        \n\nI chose engineering because I enjoy tackling complex problems that require careful analysis, creativity, and out-of-the-box thinking. I joined DSS and the M.A.N.T.I.S. project because it offered the opportunity to work on meaningful multidisciplinary engineering challenges while collaborating with passionate students and other institutions.<br><br>\n\nBecoming the lead of my subsystem happened somewhat unexpectedly. I spent a considerable amount of time as a general member of the mechanical subsystem before securing a co-op position focused on metal additive manufacturing. Since then, my experience and familiarity with the project naturally led me into a leadership role.<br><br>\n\nOutside of school, I enjoy long-distance cycling and camping.

I became a team lead for the thermal subsystem because it aligns with my interests and experiences in Computational Fluid Dynamics and simulation engineering. I wanted to apply those skills to modelling and analyzing spacecraft thermal behavior while contributing to such a vital team. Our experiments are also pretty cool. <br><br>Outside of school, I am an avid surfer; I also play on the lacrosse team here at Dalhousie.<\/p><\/div><\/div>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div
