Bio

I am currently a freshman with the intention of studying Mechanical Engineering. I am also currently a member of the club volleyball team and live in Blackwell dorm.


Intentions for this year

By the end of this year, I hope to have learn many different things involving programming and using Matlab. I also hope to have a better understanding of what it means to be an engineer and the challenges involved in choosing to study in such a demanding field.


Grand Challenges for Engineering

Favorite Demonstration

My favorite demonstration was the one involving 3-D Surface Plots because it was cool to see how not everything on a computer screen has to be graphed in two dimensions. The bright color and detail showing the terrain of the graph was eye-catching and a great representation of what technology is capable of.
