Greetings, my name is Carter Frost

I'm from Santa Cruz, California, I originally worked in cybersecurity for many years working on private key infrastructure like national ID systems, Certificate management and private key storage systems called HSMs. ie. systems that establish and maintain trust. 

I taught at Cabrillo College/PVUSD engineering camps well over the 7 years, as well as taught as a supplemental instructor at Cabrillo College in Computer Science & Computer Information Systems. 

I got into robotics 8+ years ago initially through my local community college in California (Cabrillo College's) Robotics club. For a few years I worked remotely with the lab at UNM on various projects like NASA's Houston space center on a new class of rovers for the Moon & Project Chili House, I moved out to Albuquerque, New Mexico for 2 years to work out there with the Moses Biological Computation Laboratory at the University of New Mexico as well as for Sandia National Lab laboratories in Unmanned Systems & Autonomy.

I have made the move back and am working as a Guidance, Navigation, and Control(GNC) Robotics Engineer in the bay area.

Here are some of the projects I worked on:

VolCAN - Build, Program & Pilot drones into Volcanic CO2 plumes to map them to update climate models and collecting samples to learn more about eruptions. 

MARIAM - Multi-Agent Robust Intelligent Autonomous Manipulation, teaching robots to work together to move unknown objects. 

NASA Minds: Project ChiliHouse - Using robots to grow food in space.

Swarmathon TNG - Using machine learning to teach robots what resources to ignore and what to collect.
