About
I'm a graduate Aerospace engineer and an assistant researcher who loves to design aerial vehicles starting from conceptual design, going through sizing, analysis, simulation and performance estimation, and all the way up to prototyping and testing. I have extensive experience with 3D cad modeling using Autodesk Fusion 360 specifically and I also have a lot of experience with fabrication and prototyping using 3D printers and CNC machines.
