About Louis Gagnon
I specialize in the development of state-of-the-art methods for the aerodynamic and multi-body dynamics analysis of ground and air vehicles, with a strong emphasis on code development. I have also been successful in prototype design and experimental testing, as well as guiding undergraduate and graduate students through their thesis projects. My passion lies in the hands-on creation and exploration of engineering solutions, where I can directly apply my coding and prototyping skills to solve complex challenges. I am interested in opportunities that allow me to lead by technical example within a team that values innovation, precision, and a hands-on approach to problem solving. I look forward to collaborating with other professionals who are dedicated to pushing the boundaries of technology and achieving excellence through practical and innovative solutions.
