Hi, my name is Zaid 🍁
I work at the Canadian Space Agency (CSA) as a Junior program scientist. I have previously completed two internships at the European Space Agency (ESA) in lunar exploration and space resources as well as space operations.
Aspiring to specialize in planetary science with a focus on instrumentation and mission design for deep-space exploration.
In recent years, I have been crafting my passion for space by developing an Earth Observation mission (SC-ODIN), engaging with the UN Space Generation Advisory Council and working with space programs on both sides of the Atlantic Ocean — at the Canadian Space Agency and European Space Agency.
As for me, I am tormented with an everlasting itch for things remote. I love to sail forbidden seas, and land on barbarous coasts.
