I began an internship with AECOM the summer before my sophomore year. I was an Energy Engineering Intern there. Right away, I saw how my course work related to the work I was doing at my internship. I loved that. What I was learning about financial and schedule analysis was exactly how it was done at work – they complimented each other perfectly.

One of the things that I love about spaceflight is that it’s a stream of complex science and engineering problems. Each problem is a system of systems, a series of smaller problems to solve for. I’ve applied this big-picture, systems engineering approach throughout my career.
