Lee Marom is a multidisciplinary researcher, engineer, and computational designer currently pursuing a PhD in Mechanical Engineering at MIT, advised by Markus J. Buehler. Her work blends AI, biological material intelligence, and digital fabrication to design and realize intelligent material systems across scales.

Before joining MIT, Lee gained diverse industry experience as a mechanical engineer for innovative art and architecture studios such as Breakfast Studio in Brooklyn and Futureforms in San Francisco. In these roles, she contributed to projects that merged technology, art, and fabrication for customers, including Tiffany Co., Art Miami, and Fontaine Bleau.

Lee holds a SMArchS Computation degree from MIT, and an MS in Mechanical Engineering with a specialization in biomechanics and fabrication, along with a BS in Product Design Engineering from Stanford University. At Stanford, she was a teaching assistant in the Product Realization Lab, mentoring students in design for manufacturing and fabrication processes. She was the dedicated woodshop specialist, helping foster hands-on skills within the community.
