  Great question – my parents, who are really hard workers and always so kind. My teachers, who were so selfless and made me really love learning. Professor Brian Cox, who showed me that physics is beautiful and it’s a way of understanding the world. My sister, who is always cheerful and cracking a joke. During my undergraduate degree, a few of my lecturers inspired me to always work hard. I’m lucky to be inspired by the EIRSAT-1 team on a daily basis!

  I heard about some great scientists and engineers of the past, like Newton, Einstein, the Wright Brothers, and Edison.
  I also had some very good teachers and lecturers, who gave me an interest in aspects of engineering.
