Education

Anticipated: PhD in Aeronautical Engineering at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute

Received: BS in Aeronautical and Mechanical Engineering (Dual Degree) at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute
 

CeFPaC Experience

I started at CeFPaC working on the Flow Control for Improved Tailless Vehicle Aerodynamics during Takeoff and Landing project. My undergraduate research experience inspired me to continue research through grad school.
