>> I'm a Research Electrical Engineer
in Electric Propulsion Branch at NASA Glenn.
My job is to simulate electric propulsion devices like ion
and hall thrusters and predict their impact
on the host spacecraft.
The biggest challenge in my work is making the right assumptions
for my model because the thruster may behave differently
in space than here on earth in the ground facilities.
What I enjoy the most about my job is that I work
with supportive, brilliant, yet,
fun people in solving real-world problems.
I learn a lot from them every day
and I hope they do the same from me.
I want to be remembered as someone who is a problem-solver,
offering creative solutions to any challenges
in both technical aspects and building relationship
with colleagues or friends.
