As president of the Women in Engineering Society I am responsible for leadings a team of engineering students, coordinating with the faculty portion of WiE and aligning the goals of stakeholders within and outside of the University. I have planned, budgeted and executed workshops, talks and panels aimed at helping engineering students from various disciplines develop their professional and technical skills. I also collaborate with professionals in bringing sponsorships and networking nights that will help jumpstart the careers of women in engineering.
