I am a junior originally from Northern California. Currently, my interests are mostly in the manufacturing and entrepreneurship side of mechanical, which I have been introduced to as being a shop assistant for MCEN 1025, and working for Catalyze in the Idea Forge, respectively.
I am grateful for the communities I have found myself in and the support structure I have here in the mechanical department and at the Idea Forge -- I came into college a total newbie who had never even used a drill, and I've grown and learned a lot since then (though of course I'm still a newbie).
