With a degree in Aerospace Engineering from UnB and experience in the Composite Materials Testing laboratory in Poland, I contributed to testing and certification of the ILX-34 aircraft. I challenged myself in studying multi-fluid and multi-species 3D MHD simulations on the influence of the solar wind on Mars, achieving the MSc in Geophysics from Beihang University in China. I am currently seeking entry-level opportunities in engineering to apply my experience in materials research and development, combining my passion for the aerospace industry and space.
