About Me

I am a freshman student set to graduate in 2017. I am an aspiring Pratt-star. I'm currently planning on majoring in Mechanical Engineering.

Grand Challenge

Scientists are hoping that they found a source of infinite clean energy. ITER (International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor) is a 15 billion dollar project set to conclude in 2018. The goal of the reactor is to keep the plasma of hydrogen isotopes heated and isolated using relatively low energy.
