What I want for myself

I am a Biological sciences student with experience in engineering looking to make prosthetics in the future. I have a growing interest in the human body, wanting to learn new things about it any time I can. I look forward to challenged and overcoming them especially when it comes to building or creating blueprints. I have always loved building and creating and the methodical processes of doing so. I specialize in CAD work, making 2D and 3D imaging for whenever I or the team I am working with needs. My aim is to become talented in 3D printing and making exceptional organs or limbs for those in need.

Some Projects I wish to do

Here are some things I want to work on in the future

Prosthetic Leg

Overview: Creation and printing of a leg for prosthetic

Role: Creating the 3D model of a prototype and reviewing a team

Experience: I have experience in 3D modeling and performed well in the site autoCAD Maya

I chose this because I know how important your legs are and my legs happen to be one of the strongest parts of me. It is also pretty common prosthetic.

Fake Heart/Organ

overview: Making an organ of any kind

Role: 3D CAD modeling and organizing

Experience: AutoCAD Maya modeling

This is another stepping stone in becoming a versatile biomedical engineer. You MUST know these things because organs are probably the most important workers in our bodies

Strength testing of prosthetics

Overview: Testing how prosthetic(s) do under heavy weight or stress(say an athlete)

Role: CAD printing, researching materials

experience: Learned of tolerances in engineering

I chose this again for my own knowledge and in hopes to improve in prosthetics

Making a Hand

Role: 3D CAD modeling and organizing

Experience: AutoCAD Maya modeling

This is something I really want to do because I know how important our hands are. Everything I do, at least, I have to use my hands.

About Sho's Dream

It all began as a kid, I loved LEGOs and still do to this day. While that may be true, I know that the body is more important than LEGOs, and I want to mix my love of building things and being able to help anyone I can.

What I want is for everyone to be able to live as God intended, with all of their limbs. Accidents happen, I get it, that is why I want to strive to be able to “fix” those accidents. I have always had a heart for building and creating and an even bigger heart for helping whoever I can whenever I can and this is my first step.
