Nevin Leh

I am a jack of all trades at a rapidly growing university laboratory which necessitates the usage of a wide variety of technologies. I design and implement flight software, test hardware subsystems, write documentation, and update ground-control systems for satellite operations.

In my spare time, I try and get outdoors as much as possible. In the winter I am an avid skier, both in the resort and backcountry. In the summer I enjoy trail running, biking, and rock climbing. I am a budding ultrarunner with several 50k races to my name.
