One of my biggest passions is cars. Whether that's working on them, driving them, or looking at them, I love it all! I grew up in an engineering family so I learned a lot about working with my hands from a young age and around the time my love for cars developed.
That continued into high school where I joined Athena Racing, an all girls STEM based car racing group that focused on learning about the mechanics of cars, racing and driving safety and skills, networking and other responsibilities. Not long after, I bought my first car, a 1997 Mazda Miata STO edition that I was able to work on and fix myself!
Being able to have hands on learning and experiences is one of the values of my life I hold at utmost importance. I took that value to a new level during my gap year after high school where I moved to Canada for six months, trained to become certified as a ski instructor and worked teaching people of all levels and ages for the rest of the season!
Now I'm back in school, excited to finally develop my skills through education and internships!
