lavie ohana — (they/she)

hi there. i’m lavie.

strategic development (selling rockets) at abl space systems by day, general-purpose nerd by night.

expect random thoughts, project build logs, pretty much anything my job wouldn’t yell at me for talking about.

// a little more about me

existing at the intersection of space, urbanism, photography, design, and a general love for things that move fast. los angeles native representing the 818 til the day i die. one of those folks, if you couldn’t already tell.

// the story so far

started and led a team called space scout from 2019 until 2023. broke some barriers, broke the news about the birth of a new lunar human spaceflight program, and wrote about some test flights.

also helped start a group called the hot nozzle society in 2021. did some branding work, designed and flew some rockets, helped organize some events. on my own time, got level 1 and level 2 certified with the tripoli rocketry association (#28294). level 3? watch this space.

joined a scrappy lil rocket company called abl space systems in 2023. got to shoot some hotfires, help take some cool photos, and pursue a bunch of other cool opportunities. switched to the dark side leading into 2024 and now working strategic development. selling rockets is a fun job title, isn’t it?
