Rishab Shekhar

I’m a Mechanical Engineering student at the University of Georgia with a strong passion for aerospace technologies and hands-on engineering. My interests center on propulsion systems, fluid dynamics, and structural analysis, areas I’ve explored through projects like NASA’s L’Space program and my work with UGA’s Small Satellite Research Lab. I bring proficiency in CAD modeling and engineering simulations, which I’ve applied to both space-related and mechanical design challenges.

Beyond the classroom, I lead UGA’s Design Build Fly team, where I work on propulsion and aerodynamic systems for competitive aircraft missions, and I served in a leadership role with UGA Motorsports, guiding suspension component design and fabrication. I’m eager to deepen my practical machining expertise here at CREATE.
