I am the CEO and founder of Orbital Arc, a Techstars-backed space company dedicated to development and commercialization of the Relativistic Ion Thrust Drive (RIOT Drive), which is a new type of ion engine intended to vastly improve ionization efficiency, fuel efficiency, and thrust scalability compared to all existing electric thruster designs.

At CREO, I offer management consulting services including business planning, cybersecurity and compliance, strategy, financial planning, project management, market research, presentation development, and systems implementation assistance.

I graduated from UNC Kenan-Flagler in May 2017, with concentrations in Marketing, Management Consulting, Entrepreneurship, and Sustainable Enterprise.

• Developed a multi-faceted product development and market entry strategy for a new product line with a projected value of over $39M in annual EBITDA returns.• Conducted in-depth analysis of market trends and segmentation data to create a holistic, integrated plan to mesh market opportunities with brand strategic objectives• Presented my work and recommendations to the category leadership team, and members of the C-suite

I ran the place, with my business partner Matt Kaestner (Project Manager, Investor Relations). Our team included our Marketing Director, Charlie Durham, our Artistic Director, TJ Fuhrmann, and our Head of R&D, Stephen Perez.We released two products, and completed prototype designs for 4 more. I built an international supply chain for our materials and equipment, from scratch, with no training, and assembled a manufacturing line in my kitchen that could carry us to $500k in annual revenue, all on less than $10k of capital.Our development was very "Grow as you go" with each company member constantly learning to supplement their existing skill set (myself especially; it seemed like every hat I needed to wear was an aspect of business completely new to me. Good thing I learn quick!).

I was an English teacher, and then the head English teacher at one of the most respected immersion English companies in Korea. I taught classes to students ranging in age from 2nd to 10th grade, and ranging in ability from beginner to undergraduate. Classes were immersion style, so students learned English by studying everything else, from science and technology to social issues, with a focus on reading comprehension, critical thinking, and developing writing ability. We also did test preparation for iBT TOEFL testing.While at Chungdahm, I was privileged to be promoted to Head Instructor, where I led oversight and evaluation of other teachers, and trained new teachers when they arrived. I also had the opportunity to develop curriculum for two classes, one in writing, and one in pronunciation, and to create the textbook and exercises for the writing class, I also taught pro-bono one on one speech presentation classes, using principles I learned studying theater during undergrad to help students prepare for and excel in speech competition.
