Mechanical Engineering
Durham, NC
Lorenzo is a senior studying Mechanical Engineering. His main research interests lie in the ways robots interact with human spaces, working on robotic assistive feeding, exoskeletons, and mapping robots that navigate our homes. Outside of academics, Lorenzo enjoys just being outside. Almost every weekend, you can find him hiking or trail running. Lorenzo also serves as the captain of Caltech's Ultimate Frisbee Team, which practices three times a week and participates in tournaments against other colleges in the area. His advice to students: "Reach out to multiple labs and follow up often. Professors can miss your first email, so be persistent."
