Hello! My name is Riccardo and I am one of the Commissioners of External Affairs for the 5th board of Artemis, working alongside Guusje. Currently, I am in the first year of my MSc in Space Engineering at TU Delft. My passion for this field stems from a lifelong desire to go beyond the status quo and explore the details of what lies beyond Earth. I believe there is still so much to discover, and I joined the board to help fellow students find their place in that journey.

In my role, I am dedicated to building an efficient bridge between students and the space industry. In addition to the established players, I aim to provide students with the opportunity to broaden their knowledge by connecting with also unique startups and innovative projects. My goal for this board year is to bring as much external input to TU Delft as possible, ensuring that every student gains a wider, more diverse vision of the global space environment.

I consider myself a clear communicator and a highly organized person, capable of handling multiple projects and events simultaneously. I strive to bring a “solar” presence to the team through my optimism and curiosity. Outside of my studies, I am an adrenaline enthusiast who enjoys scuba diving, skydiving, and playing basketball.

If your company is interested in gaining exposure to our dynamic student environment through lunch lectures, events, or sponsorship opportunities, please don’t hesitate to reach out. I look forward to guiding you through the process and organizing a perfectly suited event for your company!
