I am very grateful to have had my success and awards with Utah Student Robotics featured on several news media outlets. I have been interviewed for TV, radio, print, and online media to share the success of my engineering projects.

After I lead my robotics to win the grand prize at NASA's 2025 Lunabotics, NASA wrote about our project. I was interviewed for a video for NASA TV (their online video channel) which has not been released yet. One of my quotes from the video interview is listed in the article.
After being President of the robotics team for one year, I had organized my group and grew it from 8 to 40, installed a basis of systems engineering, and spent an entire year designing, running meetings, testing, and iterating. This article was a chance to share those thousands of hours of engineering work with others who had the same passion for engineering that I do.
You can read about the competition in my "Utah Student Robotics" section, and my winning robot in the "TERI - Lunar Rover section." For the time being (likely until May 2026) you can see my robot and I featured on the Lunabotics home page as well.

Here I was interviewed for FOX13, about my leadership and our involvement in robotics.
A shorter video, this was on KSL TV.

In this interview, I got to speak about how my success didn't come from luck or some person out there, but how it came from the work that I put into the team. I talked about reworking the structure of the group - changing it from a club into a real engineering team.
I spoke about how I managed the clubs funds of $25,000, and the creative workarounds we engineered to make something so successful.
I also spoke about the challenges of seeing a project from problem statement through design, development, and to completion. While I didn't get to showcase the mountains of technical documentation, I got to show, beyond what most students are privileged to, that I know how to use these tools like Excell, MATLAB, and SolidWorks to make something amazing.

I was interviewed by Emily Pohlsander on KUER radio, in June 2025. Around 1:55 in this linked audio, you can hear part of my interview.
