About
I am a current sophomore at Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University - Prescott. I am pursuing a Bachelor of Science degree in Aerospace Engineering, with a focus in Astronautics. I am a very diligent student, and I enjoy being involved in many campus organizations. I am the president of the Embry-Riddle VEX Robotics Team, which is a student-led team that designs and builds robots for VEX competitions. I am a member of the Structures Team of Embry-Riddle's Eagle Space Flight Team, which is working towards becoming the first university group to successfully build and fly a rocket to space (an altitude of 100km.) Additionally, I enjoy giving back to my community through service to others, and I am a charter member of the Embry-Riddle Lions Club, which performs service projects for both the Embry-Riddle campus and the surrounding community.
