Andrew L. Work Experience Details
  • Lepech Research Group, Stanford Civil & Environmental Engineering Department
    Doctoral Researcher
    Lepech Research Group, Stanford Civil & Environmental Engineering Department Sep 2022 - Present
    Stanford University
    Developing in-situ materials and methods for extraterrestrial surface construction with terrestrial sustainability applications. My work currently focuses on biopolymer-bound soil composite (BSC), a concrete analog made from any type of granular soil (including regolith) and an inexpensive protein binder. I'm developing methods for 3D printing the material as we assess methods for autonomous construction.
  • Stanford Student Space Initiative
    Systems Lead, Iss Experiment "Bric (Biopolymer Research For In-Situ Capabilities)"
    Stanford Student Space Initiative May 2020 - Present
    The SSI Mars Team is a winner of NASA's SPOCS (Student Payload Opportunity with Citizen Science) design competition, with an experiment flying aboard the ISS sometime in 2022. Our experiment will reveal the material properties of biopolymer-bound soil composite (a concrete analog material that can be prepared on Mars and the Moon) when formed in microgravity. This should allow predictions for the material's properties in Martian and lunar gravity, informing its use for extraterrestrial surface construction.

  • Stanford Student Space Initiative
    Mars Team Co-Lead
    Stanford Student Space Initiative Jun 2019 - Jun 2020
    Founder and co-lead of new SSI core team centered on Martian exploration and settlement. Some projects focus on in situ resource utilization (ISRU), a broad group of technologies that use Martian resources to sustain long-term (and eventually indefinite) surface missions. Others are more outside the box, such as subscale tests of ice-regolith landing pads.
