A bit late in sharing this, but a few weeks ago I was named one of the inaugural recipients of AIAA's 30/30 Recognition Program

Wisk Aero eVTOL Product October 21, 2026

The recognition is for work on Wisk’s autonomous Gen 6 aircraft: product requirements, the business case, and the Concept of Operations (ConOps) for introducing autonomy into the U.S. National Airspace System (NAS).

Incredibly grateful for this honor. A huge thank you to colleagues at Wisk who have supported me throughout this eight-year journey. None of this would have been possible without them.

Why this matters for talent

This is a personal honor for a Wisk employee tied to autonomy work on the Gen 6 aircraft, useful mainly as a signal that Wisk lets individual engineers build public profiles around regulatory and systems work. Wisk shows only 3 open roles on the board right now, so this reads more as recognition of a small, senior team than evidence of near term hiring volume.
