As Team Captain, I led my robotics team, RoboctoPI, to win the highly competitive FIRST Tech Challenge San Diego Region and qualify for the World Championship. At Worlds, the robot I designed won the Ochoa Division with our alliance partners, Wolfpack Machina and Out of the Box Robotics, and placed 3rd in the World. The robot also ended the season with the 5th highest score and 5th best tournament performance in the World.

My ISEF project, "A Differentially-Geared Omnidirectional Robotics Platform with Autonomous Jerk-Limited Navigation" won a Grand Award in the Robotics and Intelligent Machines category at the International Science and Engineering Fair in 2023. Out of over 7 million science and engineering projects that are submitted to ISEF affiliated fairs around the world, roughly 1,600 are selected to be ISEF Finalists. There were 76 Finalists in the Robotics and Intelligent Machines category, and my team project tied for 4th place in the World!

Catamaran, my favorite robot, was awarded the 1st place Control Award at the 2023 FIRST Tech Challenge World Championship.The Control Award celebrates the team that uses sensors and software to increase the robot's functionality in the field. This award is given to the team that demonstrates innovative thinking to solve game challenges such as autonomous operation, improving mechanical systems with intelligent control, or using sensors to achieve better results.

My project, "A Differentially-Geared Omnidirectional Robotics Platform with Autonomous Jerk-Limited Navigation" won the 1st place CIA Special Award at the Regeneron International Science and Engineering Fair in 2023. It was one of only 15 projects, out of 1,600 Finalist projects at ISEF, to be honored with this 1st place Special Award.

I was selected to be a FIRST Tech Challenge Dean's List Finalist from the San Diego Region in 2023. This award is given to students who have led their teams and communities to increased awareness for FIRST and its mission and have also achieved personal technical expertise and accomplishment. It is given to the top 11 robotics students in California and the top 164 robotics students in North America each year.

My project, "A Differentially-Geared Omnidirectional Robotics Platform with Autonomous Jerk-Limited Navigation" won the Grand Award in the Physical Sciences at the Greater San Diego Science and Engineering Fair in 2023. In addition to winning this top award at the GSDSEF, the project was also the 1st place winner in the Engineering: Electrical, Mechanical, and Robotics category. Winning the Grand Award at GSDSEF qualified my project for participation in the California Science and Engineering Fair as well as the Regeneron International Science and Engineering Fair.

On February 26, 2022, the robot I designed and drove with my FIRST Tech Challenge robotics team, RoboctoPI, set the in-season world record of 361 points with our Alliance partner, The Clueless, during a League Championship match. Here is the YouTube video of that performance.

My project, "A Differentially-Geared Omnidirectional Robotics Platform with Autonomous Jerk-Limited Navigation" won 2nd place in the Applied Mechanics and Structures category at the 2023 California Science and Engineering Fair.

I was named a National Merit Commended Scholar in 2023 for my performance on the PSAT. The 50,000 students named National Merit Commended Scholars each year scored in the top 3% of the 1.5 million students that take the test nationally.

I was named an AP Scholar with Distinction in 2023. This award is given to students that have scored a 3 or higher on at least 5 AP exams, and have an average score of at least 3.5 on all exams taken. I scored a 5 on 7 AP exams and a 4 on one additional AP exam for an average score of 4.9.

I was the Single Subject Award Honoree for AP Calculus BC at Classical Academy High School, and was presented a Certificate of Recognition for this award by California State Assemblymember, Brian Maienschein.
