Kris Frey

Director of Engineering - Artificial Systems at Rotor

Kris Frey began their work experience in 2015 as a Graduate Student at the MIT Aerospace Controls Lab, focusing on motion planning under uncertainty for nonlinear systems. They completed their PhD thesis on belief-space planning and conducted research on computationally-efficient methods for estimating and optimizing uncertainty. They also worked on achieving probabilistic safety guarantees for continuous-time systems. In 2015, Kris Frey also served as a Graduate Student Fellow on DARPA Fast Lightweight Autonomy (FLA) at Draper. Currently, they are working as the Director of Engineering - Artificial Systems at Rotor Technologies.

Kris Frey pursued higher education at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, starting in 2011 and earning a Bachelor's Degree in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science in 2015. Following this, Kris continued their studies at MIT, obtaining a Master's Degree in Aerospace, Aeronautical and Astronautical Engineering from 2015 to 2017. Kris concluded their educational journey at MIT with a Doctor of Philosophy - PhD in Aerospace, Aeronautical and Astronautical Engineering, which was completed from 2017 to 2021.
