Tristan Linn
Hello, my name is Tristan Linn.
I am a graduate student studying for a MS in Mechanical Engineering at Stanford University. I am specializing in Robotics, Manufactuing, and Product Realization. I graduated with a BS in Mechanical Engineering and minor in Computer Science from the UNiversity of Texas at Dallas. After college, I plan on going into the field of robotics, defense, or aerospace. I have over 8+ years of CAD experience, designing projects, modelling, and creating physical prototypes. I have internship experience with Northrop Grumman as a manufacturing engineer and OTR Wheel Engineering as an engineering design intern. I work-hard, focusing on any and all tasks a project may have, following them from sketch to product fabrication. I have been told I am efficient in my work, and that I will go above and beyond what is recquired of me for my job.
