Founder & Chief Engineer at Stardust Redux @ Stardust Redux
About
I'm an entrepreneur, engineer, and technical leader with over a decade of experience in aerospace. I love making perceptively complex and difficult things (like spaceflight) more approachable and have dedicated my career to creating hardware that solves these seemingly complex problems in the simplest, most manufacturable, and by extension, affordable ways possible while still maintaining high standards of reliability and performance. By the time I'm done, I hope average people, not just governments, large companies, and the wealthy can afford to touch space in one way or another.
