I work for ICON in Austin, Texas. I graduated in Spring 2023 with a M.S. degree in Space Resources from聽the Colorado School of Mines, and聽received聽a B.S. degree in Metallurgical and Material Engineering also from聽the Colorado School of Mines in 2021.聽I had the opportunity to work with Professor Tomoko Matsuo through an REU in Solar and Space Physics in the Summer of 2018. I have been lucky enough聽to continue working with Processor Matsuo ever since until July聽2023 as a Professional Research Assistant at at the 羞羞视频.
