Hi, I'm Dylan Myers

Mechanical Engineering Student

About Me

I'm a Mechanical Engineering student at McGill University with a Minor in Applied Artificial Intelligence, graduating in May 2026. My passion lies in sustainable mechanical design and AI-driven innovation.

Through internships at Milwaukee Tool and research at McGill, I've gained hands-on experience in product development, engineering design, and cross-functional team collaboration. I've led engineering projects, conducted independent research, and worked on independant projects that interest me.

My goal is to leverage both mechanical engineering and AI technologies to create sustainable and innovative solutions that solve real-world problems.
