I worked with a select group of engineers that comprised the structures team for a satellite. I completed a dozen drawings following GD&T and drafting standards while updating our CAD model to reflect design changes. I directly updated the design of mounting brackets and solar array cup cones to reflect changing structural parameters. As a member of the structural team, I also lead the design of tooling for a multi-array solar panel harness mockup.Successes include creating drawings to meet our team's CDR drawing released requirements, updating the fidelity of the bus CAD model, and pushing forward our harness timeline with an easy and repeatable tooling mechanism.

I worked in the Vehicle Design and Innovation Department as a Spacecraft Systems Engineer. One focus was investigating future space logistic strategies such as new space station designs/evaluation criteria and how certain platforms like servicers, depots, and space tugs can be integrated into a more robust space logistical chain. I also served as the propulsion lead and power lead for a lunar CubeSat mission designed to perform rendezvous and proximity operations. Ultimately, I lead and participated in teams doing early-level design work for the future of the space industry.

I worked closely with researchers to use high resolution satellite images to monitor deformations of critical infrastructure on a millimeter level. I have gained proficiency in software programs such as SNAPS ( Sentinel Application Platform) and StaMPS (Stanford Method for Persistent Scatterers), as well as a fundamental understanding of advanced remote sensing techniques such as Persistent Scatter interferometry.

I interfaced and worked with a diverse group of system engineers and RF engineers on a satellite testing team in the Intelligence and Space division. I assisted in the building and verification of a number of different testing equipment integral to project hardware. My secondary responsibilities included managing, operating, and analyzing a desktop thermal test set-up in a lab environment. Successes included pushing the testing team's schedule up by a number of months and managing the integration of new hardware into the testing program.

Worked with Professor Wesley Harris of MIT AeroAstro Department to analyze different grid fin geometries for optimization at subsonic speeds. We deployed a variety of tools and software such as Solidworks for mechanical design and Autodesk for computational fluid dynamic simulation.
