Why Illinois?
Superb Engineering School, Instate tuition, only three hours from home, and a really fun social scene.
What has been your best experience at Illinois?
All of the amazing relationships that I've formed with different people.
Favorite part about being an engineering student?
Delving deeper into complicated problems.
Why did you join EA?
To inspire little kids about parts of STEM, just like my teachers did for me when I was growing up.
What advice would you give to someone interested in pursuing a STEM degree?
Really make sure that you have a passion for it, otherwise it's going to be like trying to swim against a current. Something that is doable if you try really hard, but there's going to be a late of effort that you put into it if it's not a labor of love.
What do you plan on doing post-graduation?
Currently trying to go into consulting, but this could be subject to change as all things can be.
