I am currently a sophomore at Purdue University studying Mechanical Engineering. Additionally, I am working toward a minor in Design & Innovation through Purdue Polytechnic. This semester, I am participating in undergraduate research under Dr. Eric Holloway on the SCALE Workforce Development project. The goal of my research is to help educate undergraduate students on the opportunities in the microelectronics industry.

Outside of my classes, I am an active member of multiple engineering clubs. This is my second semester in the Purdue chapter of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME). Within ASME, I am a group leader on the Rube Goldberg Project Team.

In the Society of Women Engineers, I acted as the SWEetmate to the social media chair for 2 semesters. My responsibilities included creating flyers and social media posts to advertise our upcoming events.

On the Rube Goldberg Project Team, lead a smaller group to design one step of a much larger Rube Goldberg Machine. Currently, our team is brainstorming themes and steps for the Purdue National Chain Reaction competition in the spring.

Additionally, I am the marketing lead for Purdue’s Robot in 3 Days club. As a leader in a new club, my role includes running general meetings, participating in the leadership selection process, designing flyers, sharing on social media, and educating my peers about the club. Over the first weekend of January, we will design and build a robot for this year's FIRST Robotics Competition challenge over the course of 3 days. The goal of the robot is to spark ideas and kickstart the build season for high school teams across the country.

This semester, I am volunteering as a 1-on-1 mentor for female first-year engineering students. We attend monthly meetings together and meet informally to discuss any challenges my mentee is facing and how I can help her.

My passion for engineering has led me to become a FIRST robotics mentor. Through Purdue FIRST Programs, I mentor FRC Team #4272, Maverick Robotics. Maverick Robotics is based out of a local high school in Lafayette Indiana. I am primarily a CAD mentor but I also assist in building, strategy, and scouting during competitions. I am not only involved on the engineering side of campus but I am also a member of Alpha Omicron Pi, the Phi Upsilon chapter. Through AOII, I help support the Arthritis Foundation with our numerous philanthropy events.
