Daniel Tseng Chen
Mechanical Engineering student at Texas A&M bridging hardware and software through precision engineering and autonomous systems
About
I'm a Mechanical Engineering student at Texas A&M University (Class of 2027), passionate about the intersection of hardware design, autonomous systems, and software engineering.
From servicing 3D printers at the Rapid Prototyping Studio to developing autonomous UAV navigation at Tron Future, I bridge the gap between physical and digital systems. My experience spans from designing FSAE EV chassis to building NLP sentiment models for financial analysis.
