German Experience
I am a dual US / German citizen and have been studying the German language for 9 years.
At Northeastern University, I completed a minor in German language and conducted 4 months of research in Aachen, Nordrhein-Westfalen. This page features a few samples of my language skills from my Northeastern German coursework.
Sustainability as a Mechanical Engineer
Presentation about sustainability in my field of study as a mechanical engineer. In this presentation I introduce what I learn as a mechanical engineer and then relate that to various sustainability topics we discussed in my German class. I then talk about how my research at Northeastern university has applications with improving the efficiency of combustion engines which can help facilitate a more sustainable future.
Food Culture in the US
Presentation about the different eating habits in the US compared to Germany. For this presentation, I take a narrative approach and pretend that the viewer is visiting me in Boston. I describe a whole day of eating around the city and describe how the American diet differs from a typical German's.
