Major:  Fire Protection Engineering

What motivated you to become a ClarkLEADER?
I was inspired to join ClarkLEAD by my ability to get more involved in the engineering community as well as inspiring others to do the same. I came into UMD as a non-engineering student so I wasn't able to experience ClarkLEAD. Therefore, when I saw the opportunity to get involved, I jumped at the opportunity. I want to create a community for both the new and incoming engineering majors.

What are some organizations or extracurricular activities you think new students should know about?
Society of Fire Protection Engineers

What is one piece of advice you would like to share with new Maryland Engineering students?
Engineering is difficult but if you surround yourself with like majors you will begin to understand that everyone is going through the same struggles. So just keep pushing through and trying your hardest as the success pays off when you are able to tell people you are an engineering major.
