This summer, he is again conducting thermospheric density modeling research in the Aeronautics and Astronautics Department under Prof. Richard Linares and Dr. Peng Mun Siew. His interests are in designing machines and mechanisms that would be useful in the fields of rocket science, nanotechnology, astrophysics, and space engineering. He aspires to earn his Ph.D. in mechanical engineering to create a non-profit to share his knowledge and experiences with young, aspiring children who want to be in the STEM industry.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":3115,"template":"","profile_category":[21],"class_list":["post-2476","profiles","type-profiles","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","profile_category-2023-interns"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/oge.mit.edu\/msrp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/profiles\/2476","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/oge.mit.edu\/msrp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/profiles"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/oge.mit.edu\/msrp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/profiles"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/oge.mit.edu\/msrp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/profiles\/2476\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3116,"href":"https:\/\/oge.mit.edu\/msrp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/profiles\/2476\/revisions\/3116"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/oge.mit.edu\/msrp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/3115"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/oge.mit.edu\/msrp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2476"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"profile_category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/oge.mit.edu\/msrp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/profile_category?post=2476"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
