Michelle TamayoThe Colorado Space Grant Consortium Student Focus for
November 2006 is Michelle Tamayo. She is studying Aerospace Engineering at CU
Boulder and hopes to pursue her master’s degree in Aerospace. She started at
Space Grant as a structures team member and produced SoildWorks designs and then
later manufactured parts for the DINO project. She also helped design a Rover
for the DemoSat III competition. In the Summer of 2006 she had an internship at
the Lockheed Martin Company performing thermal analysis for a satellite radiator
panel. She said that working “at Space Grant helped me during the summer work
because I knew about the subsystems of a satellite and about the subsystem team
dynamics along with requirements and basic satellite design.” She has also
recently served as a bilingual teacher for an after school program to help lead
preteens into engineering. She is currently on CU Boulder's CubeSat project as
a structures team member.
