Led failure mode evaluations in boosting systems for over 500,000 global vehicles, analyzing warranty and testing data and performing component tear-downs to isolate root causes such as dimensional stack-up, operational loads, and thermal-mechanical stress, ensuring compliance with emissions regulations and improving long-term system reliability.
Managed global supply chain dynamics by coordinating with Tier 1, Tier 2, and Tier 3 suppliers across North America, Europe, and China, addressing bankruptcies, material sourcing shifts, and supplier exits affecting over $40M in annual part value, maintaining production continuity, supporting on-site plant reviews at Fort Wayne and Pontiac facilities.
Worked cross-functionally with a 19-member team to align DFMEA, service strategy, simulation, and validation testing on GETC and GED rigs—leading supplier and product development meetings, reporting to senior management, and achieving over $8 million in cost avoidance while meeting durability targets for upcoming model years.

Lead all design and engineering efforts for the 2025–2026 dual-motor electric drivetrain system, managing a 50+ person cross-functional team across mechanical, electrical, and thermal subsystems. Oversee the development and delivery of 200+ components, ensuring milestones are met through structured coordination, iterative prototyping, and collaboration.
Drive system integration and performance validation through 10+ formal design reviews and real-world track testing. Analyze experimental data to refine subsystem interactions, optimize drivetrain behavior under dynamic load conditions, and ensure compliance with reliability, safety, and performance standards.
Oversee the end-to-end development of key drivetrain technologies, including torque vectoring for enhanced vehicle dynamics, a closed-loop liquid cooling system rated for 12 kW thermal load, and a high-voltage enclosure supporting 600V architecture with CAN bus integration for diagnostics and control.
Utilize advanced CAD tools (SolidWorks) for detailed part design, packaging optimization, and DFM analysis. Apply FEA simulation to evaluate thermal, mechanical, and structural performance under real-world conditions, informing design decisions and ensuring robust, production-ready solutions.
Previously served in positions Cooling Hardware Lead Engineer and High Voltage Member

Conduct mechanical testing on 100+ bovine cartilage samples to evaluate the biomechanical effects of femtosecond laser crosslinking as a potential osteoarthritis treatment. Perform weekly indentation and unconfined compression tests to track changes in stiffness, viscoelastic response, and mechanical degradation, contributing to an emerging understanding linking laser energy dosage to cartilage stiffening and long-term durability.
Developed a custom data processing script in MATLAB and Python to automate extraction of stress-strain curves from LabVIEW-acquired force-displacement data. Streamlined the mechanical analysis pipeline, enabling batch processing, reducing manual errors, and improving efficiency across repeated testing cycles.

Lead the African Student Association at Columbia University, managing a 16-member Executive Board in planning and executing 30+ annual cultural, social, and community events, with a budget of $25,000+ to maximize impact and engagement.
Collaborate with university boards, student organizations, and local institutions to align events with cultural, social, and community goals, while advocating for African culture and socio-political issues through educational initiatives.
Provide strategic direction and mentorship to the Executive Board, oversee logistics, vendors, and volunteers, and foster community outreach and stakeholder relationships to ensure the success and inclusivity of all programming.
Previously served in positions Social Chair and Freshman Representative

Serve as Vice President of Columbia’s chapter of the National Society of Black Engineers (NSBE), leading a 10-member Executive Board to support 200+ members through academic, professional, and community-focused programming.
Spearhead initiatives to promote academic excellence and technical skill development, including study halls, technical workshops, and project-based learning opportunities tailored to engineering students.
Lead efforts in corporate sponsorship, alumni engagement, and industry networking, building relationships with company representatives and NSBE alumni to expand career opportunities and strengthen professional pipelines.
