About
For over 10 years now, I have been "making it work". I have contributed towards a variety of different spacecraft, including Mars rovers, and ion engines for a mission to Mercury. Since I started freelancing in 2015, in addition to the space work, I have branched out into other industries and types of jobs - including, but not limited to, various 3D printed UAVs, large composite high-altitude fixed-wing UAVs, ejector seat components, prosthetics and other assistive medical devices.
