Bellevue, Washington, US

Served as trajectory team lead and performed a cost model analysis for a bid in a design of Mars flyby mission to be launched no later than 2023 and to be placed before the president-elect in 2016.

West Lafayette, IN, US

Worked on a University sponsored team to design, test, build, and submit a new transonic Hyperloop Pod concept. As a member of the propulsion team, we are developing on board fault tolerant propulsion systems to provide both deceleration and acceleration while maintaining attitude control.

Reston, Virginia, US

Team leader in rocket design competition. We developed a preliminary design that consisted of an advanced Nuclear Thermal Rocket for an Orbital Transfer Vehicle from LEO to Earth-Moon Lagrange Points (L1& L2). As team leader I designed the study, compiled the findings, and prepared the final report.
