Since my involvement in Duke AERO since my freshman year, I’ve contributed across multiple specialized teams, attempting to expand my knowledge in rocketry across all fronts. My experience spans three years in Structures, with work in Aerodynamic Simulations and rocket engine R&D. I've successfully designed and launched three competition rockets at the Intercollegiate Rocket Engineering Competition (IREC), formerly known as the SpacePort America Cup (SAC). This hands-on experience has been instrumental in connecting theoretical concepts learned in the classroom to practical applications, allowing me to pursue my passion for aerospace engineering while developing comprehensive rocket design and integration skills.
