Techshot has hired Nathan Armentrout to serve as an electrical engineer. Armentrout expects to be working nearly exclusively on a project called MVP (Multi-specimen Variable-gravity Platform) which will be used in space to study the effects of gravity on a wide variety of sample types.
Armentrout earned his master’s degree in electrical engineering from the University of Louisville (UofL) and is expected to complete the requirements for a bachelor of science degree in computer engineering & computer science this summer. During his time at UofL Armentrout participated in their rocket team serving as its electronics captain.
Armentrout is also an active member of LVL1 Makerspace (LVL1.org), an organization which promotes engineering education and entrepreneurship in the Louisville area.
