As a Senior Manufacturing Engineer at Aerojet Rocketdyne, I apply my expertise in process improvement, team leadership, and aerospace engineering to optimize the production of propulsion systems. With over seven years of experience in the aerospace industry, I have contributed to multiple advanced propulsion systems. I am also a former Instructor Pilot and Flight Test Director for the US Air Force, where I flew the C-130J Super Hercules aircraft. Currently, I am pursuing an MBA at William & Mary, where I am expanding my business acumen and strategic thinking skills. I have a Master's of Aeronautical Science from Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University, with a focus on aviation management. My goal is to leverage my technical, managerial, and leadership abilities to advance the innovation and excellence of the aerospace industry.
