Through lectures and lab procedures directed by Dr. Aaron Kyle (Senior Lecturer in Biomedical Engineering at Columbia University), I built up technical skills like electronic circuitry, programming, and 3D modeling. I learned about the systematic process that professional (biomedical) engineers use to identify and address a real-world problem. I applied this process by working in a team to research and select one medical problem that was not sufficiently addressed. I worked with my team to design the prototype medical solution that we believed best addressed the problem. I delivered a presentation of my team’s design to a panel of scientists, doctors, engineers, and HK Maker Lab alumni. ## Education ### Bachelor of Science - BS in Artificial Intelligence & Decision Making Massachusetts Institute of Technology ### High School Diploma in High School/Secondary Diplomas and Certificates Columbia Secondary School ### Non-Degree Undergraduate in Psychology The City College of New York ### Undergraduate Non-Degree in Computer Science Columbia University ## Contact & Social - LinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/in/mannendri --- Source: https://flows.cv/mannendri JSON Resume: https://flows.cv/mannendri/resume.json Last updated: 2026-03-30
