About

I’m Cesar, an undergraduate mechanical engineering student and researcher at the University of South Florida, graduating in May 2026. As Chief Engineer of the USF Rocketry Team in the NASA Student Launch, I lead vehicle development and designed an active drag device for mid-flight trajectory adjustments.

My background includes extensive experience in CNC programming and operation, Design for Manufacture and Assembly (DFMA), FEA, CFD, data analysis, and technical writing. I thrive on challenging projects where creativity and collaboration are essential, and I’m driven to find innovative ways to maximize available resources.
