Hi, I’m Miguel Chamu Sosa, a mechanical engineering undergraduate at UC San Diego with hands-on experience in CAD design, robotic mechanisms, sensor-based controls, and rapid prototyping. I’ve worked on Arduino-based systems, drive-train design, and fabrication using laser cutting, milling, CNC machining, and 3D printing. I’m actively seeking internships in robotics, mechanical design, and fabrication. I’m comfortable collaborating on multi-disciplinary projects, enjoying the process from concept through implementation to testing, and I’m eager to contribute to teams that push the boundaries of practical engineering and fabrication.
