What I Do
RED Cutaway
I lead multiple aspects of the design and system integration for Project RED, a regeneratively cooled liquid rocket engine, with a particular focus on overall engine architecture and propellant flow distribution systems. My work centers on ensuring cohesive integration between structural, thermal, and fluid subsystems to support reliable operation.
Moving forward, I will oversee RED’s manufacturing, assembly, and full-scale test campaign.
RED has successfully completed its Preliminary Design Review (PDR) and is currently progressing toward Critical Design Review following manufacturer input.
