Introductions Christian Currier Behrend

Today we introduce christian Currier Behrend. Welcome to the team!

Christian Behrend is an undergraduate at the University of Houston  and the lead of the VLF/IRIG-B experiment and the thermal systems teams. After realizing his interests in aerospace, he decided to join the USIP-II to gain hands on experience developing scientific instrumentation. He became the secretary of the AIAA-UH chapter with the hopes of fostering student interest in aerospace and aeronautics. While working with the AIAA-UH, he also developed a curiosity in astronomy and has joined a collaborative effort to repair the university’s observatory. Throughout his time in the USIP-II he discovered his passion for the research environment. By studying and fabricating a VLF receiver, he hopes to learn more about project management, using laboratory equipment, understanding experimental methods, and electrical engineering.

You can follow Christian on twitter at @cbehrend0  and we look forward to hearing from you during the campaign!
