About Me

I'm Carson,

I'm Carson,

a mechanical engineering student and Stamps President’s Scholar at Georgia Tech from Canton, Georgia.

Through my research in powered prosthetics and leadership in assistive technology, I found a passion for using engineering to improve people’s day-to-day lives. I’ve since carried that interest into two medical device internships, where I’ve helped develop and test technologies designed around real clinical needs.

I’m especially interested in opportunities that combine mechanical design, hands-on prototyping, and an end product that makes someone's life better.
