I work at the intersection of plasma physics and space systems engineering — developing plasma technologies and planetary mission architectures for humans to live and work in space. My primary research focuses on in-situ production of propellants and critical resources using plasma systems to support long-duration exploration of the Moon and Mars. I’ve also developed advanced concepts in lunar regolith-based construction, in-space recycling and manufacturing, and Mars analog missions on the Moon. I thrive in interdisciplinary teams and enjoy tackling projects that require bold, systems-level thinking.
