Fabrication of BODA-Derived Resin Composite


The BODA-Derived Resin Composite model, developed as a contribution to an undergraduate senior project at Mississippi State University, illustrates the process of creating high-temperature, strong materials using BODA-resins. This composite highlights the unique application of BODA-derived resins in advanced material development, providing a clear visualization of an existing, well-understood fabrication process. The project, led by Ernesto Borrego, Ph.D. and Han-Gyu Kim, Ph.D., was completed by four undergraduate students as part of their senior theses.

Life Cycles and models of Amoebazoa and Protists


With the support of the ORED Undergraduate Research Grant, which I assisted in writing and was awarded in the summer of 2024, I had the opportunity to create scientific models for both novel and existing organisms. This initiative aimed to bridge gaps in scientific communication. I collaborated closely withTristan Henderson, a Ph.D. student under Dr. Matt Brown at The Brown Lab, to develop these models.

Neuroscience


There have been several reasons for me to illustrate neuroscientific images, primarily stemming from theNeuroscience Club I founded at Mississippi State University during my undergrad. With over 200 members, the club has used my illustrations for outreach efforts as well as designs for our merchandise.

More photos are coming to the Neuroscience Section soon.

The MS Entomological Museum


I was the graphic designer for the MS Entomological Museum in the summer of 2024. Below is a mockup of the Brazilian Whiteknee Tarantula exhibit. More work was done but is not included here.
