hello! i’m a senior studying electrical engineering & computer science at nyu abu dhabi.
i enjoy solving challenging problems, seamlessly combining different tools, and exploring multiple domains to arrive at elegant answers.
i stumbled into rocketry and helped set up nyuad.space. we’ve worked on revolutionizing high-powered rocketry and channeled our aspirations into haloship, the uae’s first collegiate high-powered rocket at the 2023 spaceport america cup. haloship won 2nd place for the dr. gil moore award for innovation, largely attributable to a strategy of extreme reusability and non-explosive parachute deployment. we also collaborated with nasa’s jet propulsion lab to propose a novel, field-resettable, reusable, and redundant hold down release mechanism (hdrm).
find my code on github.
