Will Rohren

Howdy! I’m Will, a mechanical engineering student at Texas A&M. I also spend a lot of my time on electronics and embedded systems, plus anything else where I get to design something from scratch.

This site is a portfolio and a logbook. Projects are ordered with the most substantial work at the top. Click through any of them for the full story.

Quick note on navigation: every post has a “Back to Home” link at the top and bottom (like the one above). Click it to get back here.

I’m not a software developer, and this site isn’t trying to be polished. The format is inspired by Mitxela’s engineering portfolio , which is just long-form blog posts about projects he’s proud of. Some of mine are finished, some are shelved, some are still active. I tried to be honest about which is which.

If you spot something that needs fixing or have a question, my contact info is on the About tab.

Me

Howdy!

I am William Rohren, I am a senior Mechanical Engineering Major at Texas A&M University.

This site serves as a portfolio to display my various projects, as well as a blog so that I can have a log of the things I do.

One More Note

I try to do my best to keep this reasonably updated, but my priorities are in the projects themselves. Documentation unfortunately tends to be a retroactive effort.

Changelog

5/11/26 - Content & structure overhaul

9/4/25 - Major content update

4/21/25 - Minor tweaks

3/8/25 - Initial portfolio created

Google Sites Portfolio Warning: There’s a reason I abandoned the old portfolio & remade it with Hugo.

Additional Reading

It’s because google sites kinda sucks in terms of how customizable it is. As you’ll see if you visit my old portfolio, there’s a navigation bar at the top, some with drop downs. But as far as the actual content goes, it’s really space inefficient. Under ‘Personal Projects > Big Projects’, to even see the SECOND item requires scrolling past all of the content in the first item.

I didn’t like it. So I thought of trying Hugo, and was given the idea by seeing other people using it (namely various Starforge members Brandon and Ismael to name two examples). I found a theme I liked, with blog-like posts and decided that was a suitable way to display my content.

One last note about formatting, once I have a lot more projects under my belt, I’d like to switch to a grid-like format, similar to one used by mitxela

Anyhow, the google sites portfolio linked above has a lot of my smaller projects on it. From 3D prints to school engineering club events, to VEX Robotics.

I expect that I will make posts dedicated to grouping these together. This is relatively low priority right now though, since the projects I have been able to do in college have been much more impactful than the projects I did in middle or high school. This is mostly related to money, as working on the RPS is allowing me to spend my own money on projects.

Feel free to email with any questions :)
