Interest in AIAA: I was really into rocketry, robotics, and space programs as a kid, so to be part of a team that works on aerospace, and building systems, collaborating with others, and getting engineering experience that I wouldn‘t even imagine getting from a club, immediately convinced me to join and spend my hours trying to better what we could do.

Fun Fact: My first model rocket flew across an entire football field!
