hello world!

it has been a hot minute since i have actually posted on tumblr dot com but now that i am in grad school i am planning to use this as a study blog! mainly looking to hold myself accountable but also celebrate my progress :)

i am currently working towards a masters degree in mechanical engineering, likely graduating in 2029 (i’m only a part time student since i work full time as well). hoping to post daily with progress updates and goals but we’ll see how this goes!
