Hello! I am James Heo, a sophomore mechanical engineering major at Cal State LA. In the future, I would like to work as an aeronautical or mechanical engineer, specifically for the development of aircraft and rockets.
The basic skills that I have so far in my major are basic knowledge of Solidworks, Onshape, and Openrocket, as well as MS Office. I also love communicating, teamwork building, and aiding/leading others through projects.

For hobbies, I like to play video games, build LEGOs, as well as martial arts. Additionally, I love to go to aerospace museums to look at fighter jets and to understand the specific functions of the fighters. As my passion is to become an aeronautical engineer in the future, I love visiting these museums to gain inspiration, as well as just seeing the technological marvels of fighter jets. Another hobby I have is stopping by car meets to view amazing and powerful cars. This project will guide me to improve my technical writing abilities, as well as develop my understanding of the mechanism that I am describing to repair.
