 ====== Alexander Alvara ======
-My name is Alexander Alvara and I began my PhD in Mechanical Engineering in the Fall of 2018. I am co-Advised by Prof. Pister and Prof. Lin and joined the BAMLAB in January of 2020 (the year of the plague... and the brushfires... and the floods... and the blast... and Floyd, Taylor, ... nevermind the list is too long).

-  - Self-Righting project, working to figure out micro-actuator solutions to the question of, "what happens when a microrobot falls over in the forest and noone hears it?"

 I enjoy rest, relaxation, and restorative justice in all aspects of life.
-A about me: I come from a large family, grew up mostly in California, worked in construction, dropped out of high-school, have 3 BS degrees from UC Irvine (earned concurrently), and have worked in pediatric surgical robotics with the Hospital for Sick Kids, as well as worked at the Brookhaven National Laboratory in the Center for Functional Nanomaterials... oh and I also enjoy coffee.
