Jason Chang

Hi! I'm Jason Chang, a third-year undergraduate student studying Aerospace Engineering at UC San Diego.

I'm currently in the Boechler Lab at UC San Diego in the Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering, working in Active Robotic Metamaterial Collectives. I've also interned at NASA/JPL-Caltech, working in deployable sampling instruments, and I will join the Zhao Lab at Stanford University this summer, working in origami engineering.

In my free time, I enjoy folding origami and taking photos of the night sky. I also volunteer for Science Olympiad tournaments and run this cool Science Olympiad results website.
