Howdy, I'm John.

I'm a sophomore studying mechanical engineering, fascinated by aviation, design, and how things work.

A bit about me

I'm a Mechanical Engineering student at Pensacola Christian College. I like making things—whether that's designing something in CAD, 3D printing a part, building a website, or taking something apart to figure out why it isn't working.

've also spent the last few years running small businesses and working hands-on with engines, construction, and other projects. Somewhere along the way I've picked up experience with Onshape, Blender, 3D printing, coding, and a growing collection of tools.

Right now, I'm looking for a summer engineering internship where I can put some of that experience to work, learn a lot, and get more time working on real engineering problems.

Owner/Operator · May 2024–Aug 2026. My brother and I started a small car detailing business where I handled detailing along with customers, scheduling, supplies, and the other less-exciting parts of running a business.

Giving back

Outside of work and school, I sing in the College Choir at Campus Church. Back home at Colonial Hills Baptist Church in Indianapolis, I served on the A/V team, sang in the church choir, and helped prepare food for church dinners from 2021 through 2026.
