Major Projects

EF-1 Rocket

I designed, reviewed, simulated, and launched a personal rocket and suecessfully attained my level 1 high power rocketry certification. I tested passive roll control and had an apogee of 2,200 feet.

OpenRocket Physics CAD Manufacturing

Chain Bucket Excavator

I lead a sub-team on the IAM3D design team rover compeition hosted under ASME for the creation of a chain bucket excavator on the rover.

About

Envision this. You, an infinitesimally small object, gazing into the infinite darkness, the radiant stars, beautiful nebulas, and mysterious matter both light and dark. For a lifetime I have spent countless nights completely mesmerized by the night sky, and eager to expand the horizons of space exploration. As an Aerospace Engineer at the University of Florida with over five years of programming experience, I am open to furthering my interest in space whether it be through an internship, apprenticeship, assistantship, co-op, research, job, and more. I consistently strive to invest maximum effort into all my endeavors.

As a “numbers” person, I love assessing, auditing, and documenting data as well as brainstorming new efficient and strategic plans for the best practices and have written my own documentation as an experienced programmer. I am a passionate proponent of logistics and efficiency and take data of every part of my work.

Thinking about the future of space travel exhilarates me, and I would love to network with others and am excited about future opportunities. Feel free to reach out!
