Hello

I am currently a graduate student at Purdue University majoring in Aeronautical and Astronautical Engineering. I completed my Bachelors with a minor in Computer Science. I believe that Unmanned aerial systems, and autonomy in every industry is a “Sci-Fi” vision that can be achieved in the next few years. For me, autonomy unlocks potential that humans alone cannot achieve, like landing an orbital rocket back on the ground, or flying aircraft from start to finish. I view it as a tool that enables humans to do what they do best - solve problems and think critically. Removing tedious tasks empowers human effort.

 

I have a knack for understanding a project from multiple views and enjoy breaking complex problems into smaller tasks to facilitate problem solving, and work flow. I believe in taking an interdisciplinary approach in any project - which helps me utilize my knowledge of various topics, like manufacturing, software, and control theory to make better designs. I enjoy thinking about human factors and team dynamics on my projects, and ways to improve them. I constantly drive myself to learn new things, and enjoy building a broad base of skills that diversify designs.
