What motivated you to become a ClarkLEADER?
I was excited by the opportunity to enlighten incoming students on what Maryland's engineering program has to offer. I can say with certainty there is something for everyone in terms of research, student clubs, as well as job opportunities.

What is one piece of advice you would like to share with new Maryland Engineering Students?
Be open minded, your mind will change all the time. You may think you know what you want now, and a year from now be somewhere completely different. Try everything, get involved and don't fear mistakes.
