Currently leading a subteam that focuses on testing hybrid rockets with a 30k-foot apogee. This semester we're creating new testing rigs and contributing to recovery subsystems in preparation for our national competition in the summer.

Key Outcomes


  • Directed the Test & Launch Ops. subteam in the manufacturing, design, and validation of hybrid rocket systems

  • Launched and achieved a final 3rd-Place rank in-category at the 2023 Spaceport America Cup held in New Mexico

  • Designed and manufactured a 10 ft. testing rig platform for a student-built 30,000 ft. capable hybrid-fuel rocket
