About

Hey, I'm Adam

I'm a Master's student at CU Boulder finishing up my last semester of aerospace engineering. I've sent rocket payloads to space, tested nuclear propulsion software, won an award for my image processing research, and interned at NASA. Please explore my website, and contact me if you like what you see!

Senior Project

VISION

Building a modular CubeSat tracking system that will use a Kalman filter to estimate CubeSats’ relative position using data from two optical sensors, then estimate the CubeSats’ inertial orbit and output two-line elements (TLEs).

Space Communications and Navigation Intern

NASA Goddard Space Flight Center

Built an interactive mission model of all current and future NASA missions in STK to aid in network loading analysis. Model was commissioned by NASA HQ and laid groundwork for a future model that will further consolidate NASA databases, assist in ground station placement, and allow for planning of future missions.

Image Processing Research Assistant

Colorado Center for Astrodynamics Research

Develped MATLAB code to extract the trajectories of CubeSats using deployment footage from any uncalibrated camera. Authored and presented on this research at an American Astronautical Society Conference and won second place in Student innovations in GNC.
