Why did you choose ESTEEM?
I chose ESTEEM because of how highly the program is regarded by those who have seen what students accomplish during their time attending. I also empathized with the mission of ESTEEM to fix things that matter, and found the program would enable me to share a higher value through my work after graduation.
What is your Capstone Project and why are you excited about it?
iNDustry Labs at Notre Dame is a services company positioned to unlock investments in technology, talent, and skills in the South Bend-Elkhart Region. Specifically, this capstone project will provide iNDustry Labs with a roadmap to service manufacturers in a transition from internal combustion engines to electric vehicles as the trend arises in and around South Bend. Initially this roadmap will be developed through an active transition with an established manufacturer validating the processes, decisions, and other necessary changes that must be made for a successful transition.
What do you hope to do after ESTEEM?
After ESTEEM I hope to use the tools and knowledge I gain to start a successful professional career. I am also looking to locate myself in the southern part of the United States for this career and hopefully start companies of my own to encapsulate the visions of ESTEEM.
What do you like to do in your free time?
When I'm not working, you can usually find me at the gym or participating in other physical activities. I love to get outside and have fun, with some of my favorite activities including tennis, golf, and running. Also, I enjoy consuming lots of media, particularly movies and television, as they give me the opportunity to immerse myself in a new universe.
