## Work Experience
### Software Engineer @ SimpleCitizen
Jan 2020 – Jan 2023 | New York, United States

### Teaching Assistant - Mathematics @ Georgia Institute of Technology
Jan 2016 – Jan 2020
Served as lead TA for linear algebra. Built solid communication and leadership skills in multiple styles and settings, which ranged from teaching abstract mathematics in front of a full auditorium to reinforcing concepts in smaller classrooms and directly tutoring individual students.

### Research Assistant - Dynamics and Control Systems Laboratory @ Georgia Institute of Technology
Jan 2017 – Jan 2018
Contributed to the integration and hardware-in-the-loop testing of thrusters, sensors, and mechanical components on a 5-DOF spacecraft simulator capable of replicating the dynamical conditions of space for testing novel spacecraft guidance, navigation, and control algorithms.

### Prototyping Assistant @ Georgia Institute of Technology
Jan 2016 – Jan 2018
Supported a machine shop that catered to the manufacturing needs of aerospace engineering faculty, researchers, and students. Operated research-grade 3D printers, laser cutters, and many other varieties of prototyping machinery.

### Student Launch — Vehicle Engineer / Team Mentor @ NASA - National Aeronautics and Space Administration
Jan 2015 – Jan 2018
Participated in (and later mentored/managed) a team of multidisciplinary engineering students in one of the nation's most technically challenging engineering competitions, the NASA Student Launch. Presented to — and grilled by! — NASA engineers numerous times.

We designed and developed high-power rockets capable of complex autonomous behavior such as apogee targeting, roll control, and controlled descent, all while collecting valuable flight data through onboard electronic payloads and flight software. Aside from raw materials, off-the-shelf motors, and programmable electronics, everything in our rockets was designed, machined, assembled, and thoroughly tested in-house.
