Undergraduate researcher working on cislunar astrodynamics, high-fidelity trajectory design, optimization, and spacecraft guidance and control.
About
I am an Aerospace Engineering undergraduate at the University of California, Irvine and an undergraduate researcher in the eXploration Logistics & Control (XLC) Group.
My work focuses on spacecraft motion and control in cislunar space, particularly high-fidelity dynamical modeling, trajectory optimization, station keeping, and computational astrodynamics.
Selected work
Current work on high-fidelity Earth–Moon trajectory design, long-duration reference generation, and station keeping.
Current research · 2026–present
Baseline design and station-keeping analyses for Earth–Moon vertical orbits near the collinear libration points using ephemeris dynamics, lunar spherical harmonics, sequential convex programming, and model predictive control.
