	*'''Drawers'''		*'''Drawers'''
	A similar apartment project. I owned a shelf unit from IKEA and planned on using it to hold clothes. However, clothes continued to fall out the cubbies and it just didn't look good. So, I made a quick drawer design, cut out the pieces, glued them together, and added a design to the front. Side-note, a lot of small temporary furniture, such as ~~draws~~, can be made using the ~~MakeSpace~~.		A similar apartment project.

	*'''Biaxial Device'''		*'''Biaxial Device'''
			When I joined the BG&R Lab here at Tulane we were in the process of constructing a planar biaxial device that can be used to collect more characteristic data of tissue samples compared to uniaxial testing. These renders were used in the grant that procured funding for the device to be built.

	*'''Sound Stand'''		*'''Sound Stand'''
			I currently live in an old apartment which has a lot of slanting (almost collapsing) walls. This quickly became a problem because square objects wouldn't fit in corners, so to fix this issue I design a "sound stand" to hold my sound bar while also hiding some wiring for the room. I broke down the CAD model into a folder of .dxf files, and cut the pieces out of plywood on a laser cutter in the MakerSpace. A little assembly and it was ready to go.
