A little about myself:
Hello. My name is Abid Vahanvaty and I am a third year mechanical engineering student at the University of California, Davis. I chose this field of study because I have a fascination in understanding how things work. My father is an automotive mechanic and a lot of my interests stem from him. he is also the source of a lot of the technical knowledge that I have picked up over the years. After graduation, I would love to work in the automotive or aerospace sectors, as vehicles are my passion. In my spare time, I am a dedicated sim racer (mainly on ACC). Participating in this project is beneficial to me because I am gaining communication and technical writing skills, which are great to have in an engineering role.
Skills:
- Mechanical Design
- Basic CAD/CAM
- Communication
- Problem solving / critical thinking
Experiences:
- UC Davis CITRIS Aviation Team
- Research Competition between northern California UC campuses to integrate travel between campuses via advanced air mobility
- Presented Research at UC-NASA Technical Summit
- Moorpark College VEX Robotics Team
- Designed and built a robot to compete in a game against robots built by other colleges and university
- Modeled and 3d-printed parts
- Qualified for 2023 world championships
- Mechanic, Memorial Union Games Area
- Responsible for maintenance and repair of the bowling alley
- Diagnosed and repaired complex mechanical and electrical issues
