Design.
Build.
Test.
I’m Patryk Serafin, a Mechanical Engineering student at SUNY Maritime College focused on turning ideas into physical systems through CAD, prototyping, and iterative testing.

CAD to hardware
Led two design iterations involving technical research, component sourcing, CAD modeling, 3D printing, prototype assembly, and physical testing.
Iteration-driven development
The first build produced limited powered flight. I later led a revised second build using additional research, updated components, CAD-designed hardware, and another round of testing. The second iteration appeared more energetic and more controlled while still revealing system-level limitations.
Engineering toolkit
Mechanical engineering with a build-first mindset.
I’m interested in mechanical design, aerospace and defense, automotive and motorsport engineering, and product development.
I enjoy projects where CAD turns into real hardware and testing exposes what needs to change next.
Let’s build something.
