Electrical Engineering and Mathematics
Aaron is currently studying mathematics and electrical engineering at the University of Connecticut. Currently, he works at the UConn Eversource Energy Center building and tuning machine learning models used to predict outages. In 2020 Aaron received an official citation from the State of Connecticut General Assembly for leading a NASA HUNCH team in the design and manufacturing of a prototype device for the International Space Station. The device has been approved for launch to the ISS and is scheduled to “fly” in 2020. He also placed first in the 2018 HACKUConn hackathon for the design of a shin-splint recovery device. Aaron has also spent considerable amounts of time tutoring, mentoring, and teaching other students as a teaching assistant, a sports camp counselor, and an elementary school tutor.
