About Me

I am Turibius Rozario, a first-year Mechanical Engineering PhD student at Boston University. I build drones as a hobby, enjoy exploring new fields (metaphorically and literally), and am interested in research topics surrounding renewable energy, climate change mitigation, and sustainability.

I coded this website to showcase my projects and skills for recruiters and recommenders, provide tutorials and guides for hobbyists interested in the work I do, and act as a collection of resources and findings for the curious.
