A Bit About Me
I was born in Texas in 1992 and grew up next to NASA Johnson Space Center. As a kid, launching rockets with NASA engineers as part of leadership development programs and witnessing the incredible things humanity is capable of determined my trajectory early on.
​
​My goal is to unlock the infinite resources of space for humanity. Right now I am sending missions to space to establish the key infrastructure that will make this possible.

Education
I founded Lunar Outpost with the vision of utilizing the infinite amount of resources and power in space to fundamentally transform life here on Earth. Lunar Outpost is already operating on the Earth, Moon, and Mars. Over the next few years, we will be sending a number of missions to the Moon and cislunar space to establish infrastructure and enable a sustainable human presence in space.
Prior to Lunar Outpost I worked in the aerospace industry on programs ranging from high-altitude UAVs to multi-billion dollar satellite programs. I currently also serve on the advisory board for a clean energy company.
