My name is Ben, and I graduated from Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology in November 2022 with a Bachelor of Science in mechanical engineering and a concentration in dynamic systems and control. I am currently finishing my Master in Aerospace and Engineering Mechanics from The University of Alabama. I most recently worked as a GNC engineer for Raytheon. My main engineering interests are dynamics and controls. On this site, you will find selected projects from my work in those fields and highlights of my astrophotography hobby and other pastimes.
Featured Work
Internships and Co-op Experience
Collins Aerospace Facility, Rockford, Illinois, where I worked as an engine systems engineer from March to August 2020. While working at Collins, I helped develop new MATLAB-based simulation programs to analyze fuel pumps for military and commercial aircraft.
As a controls engineering intern at Daifuku Wynwright in Bolingbrook, Illinois (summer 2021), I worked with six controls engineers to commission the Harbor Freight Tool Facility, in Joliet, Illinois, a 1.6 million square foot distribution center.
As a controls developer engineer at Altec in St. Joseph, Missouri (summer 2022), I worked on building firmware to support and expand the large aerial device product family.
