About Me
I am a space systems engineer and M.Sc. candidate at Sharif University of Technology. My research and academic focus center around nonlinear optimal control, Koopman operator theory for active debris removal, and small satellite mission engineering.
Throughout my academic journey, I have contributed to student mission teams—notably serving as Assistant Systems Engineer and Payload Designer for the international SPARCS 3U CubeSat ↗ initiative within the APSCO framework. Additionally, I develop mathematical toolkits and simulations in MATLAB, and implement embedded software routines for specialized payload hardware.
