In Ethan's time at Stony Brook, they plan to research mechanical engineering, with a special interest in aerospace. In Ethan's free time, they like to make music, watch movies, travel, play video games and spend time in nature. Before becoming a Simons STEM Scholar, Ethan participated in the SBU Science Technology Entry Program, Robotics Club, and was Secretary of high school's Science Honor Society.
"I want to work in aerospace industry and research, developing the next frontier of travel beyond our planet, and pioneer technology that will make space travel more efficient and viable. I also want to work on integrating clean energy into these operations, and ways to reuse aerospace shuttles so we can preserve the quality of Earth while expanding our reach in space."
"I chose to become a Simons STEM Scholar because of the community and the opportunities provided. The support from not only staff but each other scholar allows me to keep my footing when times get rough. Beyond the support and family created by this community, the opportunities presented are above anything I would experience at other institutions."
