I am studying Chemical Engineering with a Materials Engineering emphasis. I'm from Exeter, New Hampshire (across the country!). I will be graduating with the Class of 2027. I am VP Professional for the American Institute of Chemical Engineers, helping the Professional Committee plan professional development events for engineering students. I am also part of Chem-E Car, a design team at USC that designs and builds a shoebox-sized car powered by chemical reactions. I've worked as an Research and Development Intern at a grease manufacturing company over the summer. I've also worked as a Materials Engineering Intern, contributing to manufacturing scale-up. Aside from engineering, I play alto saxophone as a squad leader in the Trojan Marching Band (The Greatest Band in the History of the Universe) and love hiking in nature.
