About Me

I'm Adam Zheng - a senior aerospace engineering major at Texas A&M University, originally from Buffalo, NY. As you can probably tell, I'm very passionate about space and my goal in life is to combine that passion with my ability to solve complex, interdisciplinary challenges - for the sustainable development of space, and for the benefit of life on Earth. Once I graduate in May 2026, I aim to pursue an MS and conduct research on a novel reflector concept for lunar power distribution before entering the space industry as a systems engineer and creating the next generation of space technology!

In my free time, I love to build solar sails, read books, go hiking, cook new recipes, work out, and play just about any sport (volleyball, basketball, badminton, you name it!).
