Summary

I am an Aerospace Engineer currently in my junior year at Worcester Polytechnic Institute. I have worked extensively with fluid dynamics, computer aided design, and I have interest in space flight pathing. As of now, I am interested in space flight companies that are working towards commercial space flight and space flight for space research to learn more about the intricacies of space travel. I would like to know if you have any connections or internship positions that can help me expand my knowledge and be an asset to space flight companies.
