About Me

Portrait of Aden Walsey

I am a fourth-year undergraduate and Early Admit M.Eng. student in Mechanical Engineering at Cornell University focused on designing and analyzing physical, performance-driven systems.

As a coxswain for Cornell’s Lightweight Rowing team and an avid cyclist, my perspective in athletics has shaped how I think about performance, where small design decisions can have measurable impacts on system behavior.

A question that drives my work is: how can I design and build systems that perform reliably and efficiently in demanding environments?

Simulation & Testing

Using FEA, CFD, and physical testing to validate performance and understand system behavior.

Manufacturing

Considering fabrication, assembly, and tolerances to ensure systems function reliably in practice.

Design

Translating concepts into manufacturable mechanical systems through CAD, prototyping, and iteration.

Leadership

Making real-time decisions and communicating clearly under pressure as a coxswain, where consistency, timing, and execution directly impact outcomes.
