As team lead, my responsibilities are to keep up with milestones and deadlines to make sure the team stays on track for both TCNJ’s senior project and NASA competition timelines. Additionally, I plan team meetings for effective collaboration, keeping organization of files, and oversee the reports and presentations to make sure we are following TCNJ and NASA guidelines and expectations. My role in mechanical design is to make sure our design can withstand the extreme temperature fluctuations and pressure conditions, along with normal operating loads. I will also focus on the mitigation of dust particles negatively impacting the system reliability, and ensuring compatibility of the design with multiple different surface assets.

It is my responsibility as the technical lead to make sure that every design choice is reasonable, technically sound, and well-founded. While keeping a system-level approach, I lead the team through complex calculations, simulations, and trade-off judgments. I also check the accuracy and integrity of my teammates' work. Additionally, I work as the fluid dynamics analyst, where I study how fluids behave on the surface of Mars and the Moon. This involves carrying out computations to guarantee dependable fluid transfer between surface assets while facing issues including surface tension effects predominating in lower gravity and leak mitigation.

As Treasurer, my main focus is to manage the budget and make sure the project is financially realistic. This will also include the purchase of parts for our design and keeping track of when the parts will arrive and when to order the parts to make sure they arrive in a timely order. My role as the thermal designer is to study and understand the heat transfer that takes place on the moon and mars surface. To make sure the liquids being stored for the assets on the surface of these terrestrial bodies are not being compromised by the extreme environments of space or the atmosphere of Mars.
