Hi! I'm Tiger Sky Jewell-Alibhai, but everyone calls me Tigey. I am 19 years old and love anything to do with Engineering and Design. I am pursuing a career in Mechanical and Robotics Engineering as an undergraduate at Olin College of Engineering.

I grew up in the Algarve province of Portugal, and only moved to the US just before high school. Because of my parents' work, I have travelled to many different places such as China, India, Namibia, and the UK.

I am an avid drone & FPV enthusiast, and enjoy making and flying planes and quads. Photography, cinematography, and photogrammetry with drones is also really fun, and I have a U.S. Part 107 Commercial Drone License. Whether it's racing wings or a camera drone, UAVs offer unique contributions to photography and a really great inexpensive and risk-free way to fly for fun.

Now at Olin, I have the opportunity to turn my ideas into meaningful projects and collaborate with amazing people on a daily basis. I have been involved in projects from designing and building a banner towing A-tail R/C plane to designing a kinetic sheet metal sculpture of a kraken ripping a boat in half to using PCA and eigenfaces to identify endangered species of animals by their footprints.
