What I'm looking for

I'm looking to work on aerospace R&D involving high-speed aerodynamics, CFD, propulsion, thermal management, flow control, and simulation-driven engineering design.

I'm a third-year Aerospace Engineering student conducting CFD research on supersonic and hypersonic flow problems. My parametric Mach 2.5 drag study of axisymmetric bodies was submitted to Acta Astronautica and produced a quadratic drag correlation with R² = 99.99%.

I've contributed to advanced propulsion R&D at Prime Toolings and designed CAD components at RMZ Oilfield Engineering. My projects include a Mach 7 annular bleed film-cooling concept, a vortex-based microplastic filtration system, and a miniature axial jet engine designed in Fusion 360 and analysed in ANSYS.
