Open-source contributions

Merged contributions to Fpy, the spacecraft scripting language for F Prime:

  • Time-context types — Fixed time() to honor the dictionary-configured time-context type.
  • String serialization tests — Updated regression coverage for configurable string-length prefixes and UTF-8 byte counts.
  • Spelling CI — Updated and pinned check-spelling to v0.0.26.

Engineering projects

  • Model Rocket Flight Computer — Observation-only C++17 prototype for sensor filtering, flight-state classification, telemetry, and fault detection, with synthetic-flight tests. Hardware integration is in progress; the system has not flown.

  • LoRa GPS Telemetry and Ground Station — Arduino LoRa GPS link and Python ground station. A 5.7-hour bench run logged 20,152 packets with 0.55% reported packet loss; public examples use synthetic positions.

  • Solar Atlas — Stellarium Catalog Pipeline — Node.js binary-data conversion and validation pipeline. Converted 586,525 star records across four catalogs and reduced output size by 33.3%, with synthetic end-to-end tests.

Team engineering

Project Neptune — UCF — Avionics Flight Computers Responsible Engineer (Team Lead).

Work includes component evaluation, bring-up test planning, and flight-computer setup and driver documentation.

Tools

C++17, Python, JavaScript/Node.js, Arduino, Git, CMake, and KiCad schematics and board placement.
