Aaron Steinberg

Birthright Excel Fellow @ Birthright Israel Excel

About

I am Aaron Steinberg from Chicago, Illinois. My goal is to graduate from Vanderbilt University with a degree in Mechanical Engineering and minors in Math and Data Science, as well as to graduate with honors. Throughout high school and now in college, I have always been passionate about mathematics and science, which require critical thinking and creative solutions. And as a two-sport varsity high school athlete (soccer and tennis), I thrive as a collaborative leader who embraces the power of teamwork. I intend to capitalize on this passion as I pursue a career in an Engineering-focused field.
