I’m Emanuel Salinas, a Senior at Northern Arizona University pursuing a Bachelor's in Mechanical Engineering, focusing on aerospace and aeronautical sectors. I've gained hands-on experience through the NASA L'SPACE Program, designing efficient drones, and the NCAS Program, where I researched ISRU techniques for space exploration. I contributed to quantum superconducting research with the Center for Quantum Networks, developing a twisted graphene superconductor, and worked at MIRA on nanotechnology and energy storage projects. Additionally, I’ve applied thermodynamics to improve kiln performance in sustainable forest restoration. As an active leader in the Rocket Club and Quantum Network Student Council, I am eager to apply my skills to tackle complex engineering challenges in aerospace, energy, and beyond.
