Mechanical Engineering · University of Michigan · Class of 2029
Andrew is a CAD enthusiast from New York with a passion for turning ideas into real, engineered designs. A robotics warrior at heart, he competed at the FIRST Worlds Robotics Competition in high school — where precision design and fast iteration weren't optional. That drive is exactly what he's bringing to Project CADen.
Sandeep Sawhney

Computer Engineering · University of Michigan · Class of 2029
Sandeep is a builder from New York at the intersection of AI/ML and hardware, with a deep focus on embedded systems applications. Before Michigan, he was deep in academic research — working in Biomedical Engineering and earning a finalist spot at the Regeneron Science Talent Search, one of the most prestigious science competitions in the country. He brings that same research-driven rigor to building the intelligence behind Project CADen.
