Kristian Georgiev
I'm Kristian Georgiev, a second-year aeronautical engineering student. In the upcoming academic year (2023-2024), I will replace Timo van Spelden as the General Manager of the Aquilo Rocket Team. My journey with the team began due to my profound fascination with space and aeronautical technology. I saw Aquilo as an excellent opportunity to expand my experience in this captivating field. I am a highly ambitious individual, fully committed to putting in the hard work required to achieve my objectives. My primary goal as the General Manager is to steer the team towards greater professionalism while preserving our dynamic learning and collaborative atmosphere. Together with the team, we are looking forward to finishing the supersonic Aquilo VII and the duo-stage Aquilo VIII.V by the end of this academic year as well as to launch future projects for the team.
