If we haven’t met, my name is Carson Lansdowne.
I’m currently working as an engineer building orbital infrastructure. My dream is that humanity learns enough to preserve itself and the beauty of Earth into time beyond meaning.
I am a runner, cyclist, self-proclaimed handyman, music-enjoyer, writer, data junkie, environmentalist.
I am usually outside.
Here are some pictures I took
Here is how much I love moss
Here, I put some of my artwork
Here’s my Rejection Resume
Here are my Non-Negotiables
I graduated from UT Austin with a degree in Aerospace Engineering and a certificate (minor + research project) in Computational Engineering. In college, I was Student Director of the Texas Rocket Engineering Laboratory and before that I was a control systems engineer on our space shot liquid bi-propellant rocket, Halcyon. I was also an analyst on Texas Undergraduate Investment Team, a team of ~24 that managed a small portfolio of securities. I launched sounding rockets competitively in High School and one time I won a contest for highest apogee for an C-series model rocket at NASA (a whopping ~15N max thrust!).
I am a completely neutral wordcel and shape-rotator.
Currently, I am studying optimization and power electronics as a graduate student at University of Washington’s College of Electrical and Computer Engineering. I also work at Blue Origin on Blue Ring.
Previously, I’ve interned at CPMG, inc. (a hedge fund based in Dallas), as a systems engineer at biotech startup Procept Biorobotics, an engineer at Gravity, co., and most recently, a data scientist at Slingshot Aerospace.
That’s all.
