Senior🎓
Top SchoolGrace Genszler is a Ph.D. candidate in aerospace engineering at Cornell specializing in trajectory design and mission planning for formation-flying, space-based observatories. With eight years of experience across research and industry, she combines a strong physics and computational sciences background with hands-on work refining simulation tools like EXOSIMS and validating schedulers that trade science yield against fuel costs. Her internships at Virgin Orbit and Slingshot Aerospace reinforced practical mission design and propulsion modeling skills, while teaching and tutoring roles show she communicates complex systems clearly. Based in Ithaca, she brings both academic rigor and engineering pragmatism to problems at the intersection of astrodynamics, software tooling, and mission operations.
