Kush Patel

A Rocket Scientist turned Computer Scientist

Chicago, IL

About

My name is Kush Patel. I graduated with a degree in Aerospace Engineering in 2017 from the Georgia Institute of Technology. Soon after, I found my love for programming and enrolled at Fullstack Academy, a premier coding bootcamp. When not coding, I enjoy exploring Chicago's food scene, travelling the world (also in hopes of finding good food) and lots of skiing!

Experience

I've worked in a variety of roles in my career. From Propulsion Engineering at Delta Air Lines, to Pricing at United Airlines, my goal is to use my engineering and aviation knowledge to solve new problems with innovative, user-centric solutions in the tech industry. Currently I am a frontend engineer at Splitgraph, a startup focusing on making it easier to build, share, and query data.
