Currently pursuing a degree in Aerospace Engineering at Purdue University with interests in Propulsion and Astrodynamics. I have always been fascinated by the possibilities of outer space and the design of rockets and spacecraft. As humanity continues to advance and grow, I believe our species' future lies in outer space, and I want to do my part to make that future a reality and explore the vast cosmos surrounding us. As a member of Purdue Vertical Flight Systems, I am able to learn more about aerospace engineering while also applying the knowledge that I learned in class to a real-world project. Through the opportunity to work on a long-term project, I have gained valuable experience in engineering research and design processes.I am also continuing my passion for - and involvement in - competitive mathematics by working with the Florida Association of Mu Alpha Theta on a freelance basis during my undergraduate studies. Through this work, I hope to stimulate high school students' problem-solving skills and encourage further education in mathematics and other STEM fields.
