I have over nine years of experience contributing engineering and program management excellence towards complex aerospace products.

To learn is to grow.

I am beyond passionate about learning. This is why I have completed a technical masters and bachelor’s degree, while currently completing my MBA candidacy.

…Perhaps a Ph.D. next?

Always Follow Your Passion

Your work should reflect your desire to change humanity for the better and by taking an existing model to improve on it.
