The Electrical Subsystem lead, Nicholas Ciarelli, is a sophomore in Electrical Engineering. He has been interested in and participated in activities involving science and technology since elementary school. Much of his interest in both science and technology has been nurtured by growing up in a family full of engineers. He also enjoys finding ways to spark similar interest in science among those around him, whether young or old.

The Business team lead, Phil Le is a sophomore in Aerospace Engineering. He enjoys playing Turkiball (no one else has heard of it, either), and probably rocks at it.
Vritika Singh is a freshman in Aerospace Engineering. She was involved in robotics in high school and is excited to continue her space fascination with team ZESTT. She is also the baby of the team, so she gets picked on a lot.
