A dual American\u2013Belizean citizen who has lived in Lebanon, the United States, and the Netherlands, she brings a global perspective shaped by adaptability, curiosity, and cross-cultural collaboration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At Georgia Tech, Zeina is a research assistant in the Lunar Lab, where she developed a low-cost quadrotor platform that evolved from a single prototype into a reproducible fleet for autonomous flight research. Leading systems and mechatronics, she integrated compute hardware, flight control, and sensing to achieve reliable performance. Her work has been recognized with the President\u2019s Undergraduate Research Salary Award, the PURA Travel Award, and the SGA Conference Fund Award, supporting her presentation at the 2026 National Conference on Undergraduate Research. She has also presented in the AE Brown Bag Lecture Series. Outside of research, Zeina previously interned at Whisper Aero, where she worked on automation and predictive models and learned to translate technical design into real-world impact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Zeina is deeply involved in the Georgia Tech community. She serves as a Student Ambassador, Co-Treasurer of the School of Aerospace Engineering Student Advisory Council (SAESAC), and Event Coordinator for the Hispanic Recruitment Team, where she works to expand access to STEM. She is also a member of Tau Beta Pi and Sigma Gamma Tau and performs on the color guard team with the Yellow Jacket Marching Band.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This summer, Zeina will participate in the MIT Summer Research Program (MSRP), continuing her work in robotics and autonomy. She hopes to build a career developing intelligent, reliable systems, with a particular interest in space applications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":5149,"template":"","profile_category":[25],"class_list":["post-5148","profiles","type-profiles","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","profile_category-2026-interns"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/oge.mit.edu\/msrp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/profiles\/5148","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":2,"href":"https:\/\/oge.mit.edu\/msrp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/profiles\/5148\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":5369,"href":"https:\/\/oge.mit.edu\/msrp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/profiles\/5148\/revisions\/5369"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/oge.mit.edu\/msrp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/5149"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/oge.mit.edu\/msrp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5148"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"profile_category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/oge.mit.edu\/msrp\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/profile_category?post=5148"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
