I am a student pursuing a bachelor's degree in mechanical engineering with an concentration in aerospace at Boston University. My career goals are centered around the development of flight vehicles capable of long-distance space exploration.  I am a member of the Boston University Rocket Propulsion Group (BURPG) and focus on fluids and propulsion. I am currently developing a pintle injector for the Variable Engine Gaseous Test Stand (VEGAS) to support a 600lbf engine. This project will aid in the team's research of propulsion methods and the development of larger flight hardware.
