Identified the mitigation & disposal strategies aerospace companies employ using NLP-based Clustering of Orbital Debris Assessment Reports (ODARs).• Developing an LLM-driven query & summarization tool to improve FCC’s decision time-frames 5x.

Built a Qiskit Quantum Gate Simulator as we work towards designing a low-cost photonic Quantum Computer.

Designed & Manufactured an RF-based payload robust enough for spaceflight

Designed & built an Ion Thruster Test Stand to measure and record forces (order of milli-Newtons) critical for evaluating the efficacy of steady-state hall thrusters built in the lab.

Designed and built a swarm of ducted autonomous drones with heavy-lifting capabilities for a robotics startup.Summer Undergraduate Research Opportunity• Manufactured 4 ducted flight vehicles of our custom design using insulation foam on the ShopBot & Fiberglass sheetcomposite for 22% structural integrity improvement.• Wrote C++ firmware for Crazyflie Bolt flight controller, PID tuning for stable flight, & control electronics filtering to cleanESC signals using DSHOT protocol within 2 weeks.• Delivered prototypes meeting aggressive deadlines, in collaboration with 7 team members.Autonomous Swarm Systems & Controls Researcher• Conducted FEA on propeller ducts, designed power electronics setup to achieve thrust for 10lbs lifting capability & wrotea genetic algorithm to optimize prop blade shape for a 47% efficiency increase.• Computational Control Model of serial 4-bar linkages mimicking a fishtail oscillating at natural harmonic frequency.
