About Me
My name is Rohan Joshi and I'm currently a first-year student at Duke university, studying Mechanical Engineering in the Pratt Department. I was born in New Orleans but, after Hurricane Katrina my family and I moved to Miami. Miami is the city that I call home as I have lived in Miami for almost my whole life, attending elementary, middle, and high school there. My family is from Karnataka, India. Hence, Indian food is my favorite genre of food (Naan and paneer dishes are superior).
Pronouncing My Name
I would say the pronunciation is fairly simple. However, just in case you are curious, here is the phonetic spelling: Row-hawn Joe-shee. I hope that helps. If not, you can probably just look it up on Youtube.
Career Goals
I hope to enter the field of Aerospace Engineering, particularly in space rocket propulsion. I've always been interested in intersection of engineering with space science and exploration. The idea of humans going to and exploring planets to find answers for our many probing questions is something I hope to contribute towards. Moreover, I enjoy the use of engineering in avoiding climate change. How can we limit our carbon emissions and repurpose plastics from landfills and oceans? Finding an intersection between environmental and aerospace engineering has been a challenge but for now I will continue to explore both fields and allow for my curiosity to grow.
Interests and Hobbies
- I love drones. When I was a child I began watching a lot of videos about drones, from its electrical components to coding to the motors used. One thing led to another and by high school I began making drones with friends. On top of building them, I also enjoy flying and taking photos and videos of Miami's natural surroundings, from the beaches to the Everglades.
- Football and basketball are the cornerstone of my entertainment. Playing and watching these sports are my favorite. The teams I support at the New Orleans Saints, Miami Dolphins, and Miami Heat. If you support any other team I automatically feel bad for you.
- Mathematics is my best subject. I competed in regional and statewide competitions throughout high school. Problem-solving in math is my forte.
- Playing board games in my free time is my way of letting go of the stresses of everyday life. Some board games that I enjoy playing include Secret Hitler, Clue, and Coup.
