About Me

Hi! I'm Charles, a mechanical engineering student at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign. I love designing functional and sleek mechanical systems. In my free time, I work on student-built electric cars, snap photos, and fly drones. I'm excited to work in product design within aerospace, defense, or consumer products!
