Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolGino Perrotta is a research engineer at Johns Hopkins APL with 11 years of experience probing fluid dynamics, bio-inspired propulsion, and unsteady aerodynamic forces informed by a Ph.D. in Aerospace Engineering from the University of Maryland. His work blends hands-on design and fabrication—building automated experimental facilities for insect-scale flight and mentoring research into sea lion swimming—with analytical modeling of physical-empirical propulsion systems. A NeurIPS 2019 Reconnaissance Blind Chess competition winner, he brings a practical curiosity about how toy problems illuminate machine decision-making and is increasingly applying AI to experimental and modeling challenges. Based in Hyattsville, MD, he combines deep experimental skills from hypersonic wind-tunnel work to museum exhibit engineering with a knack for turning complex experiments into reproducible data-driven insights.
