A passion for technology and software led me to begin my journey at UVM as a computer science major. However, I quickly developed a fascination for hardware after working with circuits and a Raspberry Pi for a semester-long project. The ability to build something tangible and give it life with software I developed was an experience I had not had previously. This led me to make the exciting transition into electrical engineering, where I can now combine my love for software with my newfound passion for creating innovative hardware solutions. While I am fascinated by the many different paths electrical engineering has to offer, I have found particular inspiration in the field of alternative energy. The potential to contribute to sustainable solutions for the future has been a driving force for me to succeed in this field.
