Major: Biomedical Engineering

​

What do you love most about Project Smile?

I love that project smile focuses on interactions and creating memories with children. Majoring in STEM sometimes we forget how important that aspect is and I love how project smile focuses on it. By partnering with various organizations in Atlanta to make a remarkable difference we can magnify our impact. I love how we strive to foster laughter in the children we work with and of course smiles. When they have fun so do we :).

​

If you could choose 1 superpower, which would you choose and why?

If I had a superpower it would be to have the ability to see through objects. Similar to x-ray vision I’d want to have this power so I could look at any object and see how it worked—see how the intricate inner components function in collaboration.
