#ILookLikeAnEngineer

Why did you choose engineering at CU Boulder?

I wanted to enter a challenging program so that I could build a better work ethic and learn from my peers.

What does #ILookLikeAnEngineer mean to you?

Anyone can be an engineer. It just takes hard work.

Do you have a favorite quote or mantra?

"If you're doing what everyone else is doing you're doing it wrong" - Casey Neistat

What are three things that make you unique?

I play five instruments.
I make comedy videos.
I have four little sisters.

What are you up to these days?

I recently finished an Embedded Systems Engineering internship at Powermat in Israel. As for plans after my senior year, I'm still deciding between grad school, medical school, and getting a job.

Do you have any advice for freshmen pursuing an engineering major?

Everyone struggles in some way or another. Some people are just better at hiding it than others. Find a good group of people that push you to improve. Also, working hard is fine, but working smart is better.
