Aria Alamalhodaei
I'm Head of Communications at AstroForge, where I help tell the story of what the future looks like when you radically lower the cost per kilogram of accessing deep space.
Before that, I was a reporter covering the commercial space and hard-tech ecosystem at TechCrunch, where I reported breaking news, published scoops, and wrote long-form features on the people and companies shaping the industry.
