This year, I began my third year of Aerospace Engineering, where I’m diving deep into aerodynamics, materials science, and computational modeling. To apply this knowledge in a real-world setting, I joined the Hydro Motion team!
As the Hull Design Engineer in the Hull and Body department, I get to bring together everything I’ve learned so far. My responsibility is designing the shape and deck of the boat, ensuring it's efficient even when we're not foiling and as maneuverable as possible. The deck plays a crucial role, as it’s the main interface with other departments. Every component needs to be easily installed and maintained.
I'm excited to work with such an incredible team throughout the year and deliver an outstanding result!
