Welcome!

You've stumbled upon Clara O'Farrell's website. I am currently a Guidance and Control Engineer at the NASA Jet Propulsion Lab, where I work on modeling parachute aerodynamics, and on trajectory simulations for Entry, Descent, and Landing. Since joining JPL in 2013, I've been a working on the Low-Density Supersonic Decelerators project.

In the Spring of 2013, I received my PhD in Control and Dynamical Systems from Caltech. While at Caltech, I was a member of John Dabiri's group: the Biological Propulsion Laboratory.

This page is under perpetual construction, but it hopefully includes some helpful information about myself and my research, which you can access via the links on the right, or the nav bar at the top.
