Mission design and navigation analysis for Earth-orbiting, cislunar, and interplanetary spacecraft. Applying artificial intelligence to astrodynamics and spacecraft autonomy.

•Application of artificial intelligence algorithms to low-thrust trajectory optimization•Low-thrust trajectory optimization in the Earth-Moon system•Implemented parallel computation of satellite conjunction assessment using polynomial chaos •Developed orbits concepts for a telescope-starshade formation flying technology demonstrator as part of the New Worlds Observer mission.•Participated in a leading role 4 times in CU Boulder’s team for the Global Trajectory Optimization Competition (GTOC 6, 7, 8, 9)•Researched use of libration point orbits to observe GEO spacecraft or Earth’s surface

•Developed a MATLAB GUI to access telemetry data from LADEE lunar orbiter database•Worked with an interdisciplinary, international group of 14 students to develop biology-based construction techniques for Mars colonization
