What inspired you to become a ClarkLEADER?
Through my time here at UMD, I have come to learn a few things from my experiences and would love to be able to help incoming engineering students navigate their paths and feel welcomed in our community.

What is one piece of advice you would like to share with new Maryland Engineering students? 
I once read that "Everyone carries a piece of the puzzle. Nobody comes into your life by mere coincidence. Trust your instincts. Do the unexpected. Find the others." I love this quote and I think it's extremely important to connect with others around you because you never know what you can learn from them and what they can learn from you.

What are some organizations or extracurricular activities you are involved with on campus?  
I am a part of the Phi Delta Theta Fraternity, Intramural Soccer, and am the Vice President of D&I for the UMD Interfraternity Council (IFC).

What is a cool engineering experience you've had? 
I had a blast designing a mechanical pendulum clock in ENME272 using SolidWorks. This project taught me a few things about design, teamwork, and planning.
