As a member of Baja club I met virtually with my teammates to design parts for an off-road vehicle. I was able to improve my CAD abilities and learn about the design process.

As a member of the Water Resource Management team (WRM), I have been able to help create a hiking trail in the Purdue owned ACRE wetland. The majority of time has been spent designing, planning, purchasing, and constructing an 18 foot bridge over a drainage ditch to make the path walkable. I have developed my CAD skills through designing signs for the pathway, and my business skills through analyzing the materials needed and filing numerous purchase request forms as seen fit. As the project partner liaison I am in charge of communicating our progress and holdups with our various partners.

The Mobile Science Lab branch of team INDIA was responsible for designing and testing various science experiments that will be brought to village students in India. We also designed the storage system for the materials that all fit on the back of a single rickshaw. Weekly calls with project partners from India allowed me to get a global perspective through engineering.
