At the University of Balamand, I’m studying aeronautical engineering, with coursework in aerodynamics, propulsion, and aircraft design.

On an ongoing team project, I compared benchmark VTOL and unmanned aircraft designs to define realistic requirements. I also explored transforming-wing operation, battery integration, and retractable landing gear for a conceptual VTOL aircraft.

For my Variable Wing Span Aerodynamics Study, I examined how wing geometry and flight conditions affect lift and drag, then applied finite-wing and compressibility methods to NACA airfoil configurations. I’m seeking practical aviation-industry experience where I can contribute to engineering analysis and technical project work.
