Drawing of Christine

Hello, I’m Christine!

I recently graduated at MIT with a B.S. in Mechanical Engineering and a concentration in Product Design & Development.

This summer, I was a Mechanical Design Consulting Intern at Cofab Design, a physical design consultancy in Holyoke, MA. I was also the Product Design Lead at MIT CAD Lab, designing a low-cost, flat-packing shelter for feral and stray cats!

Some of my previous work experience includes being a Product Development Intern at Jazwares and a Design Research Assistant at the MIT Media Lab.
