About

I’m an Aerospace Engineering undergrad at Georgia Tech heavily focused on propulsion and fluid dynamics. I prefer hands-on engineering:designing, building, and testing hardware and fluid systems. Taking the leap my family built for me, I’m pushing straight for the global stage. At the end of the day, my goal is simple: solve hard problems, build reliable engines, get hardware off the ground, and help others.
