the iterative journey to doing good

I graduated from the University of Washington in June 2023, being granted a Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering with Interdisciplinary Honors. After learning about the iterative design process in high school, I initially applied it to what I thought was only my academic college work. Through the Interdisciplinary Honors Program, I not only got a chance to figure out how to apply my engineering skills for good, but I also got the chance to reflect and figure out that, all along, I'd been iterating on every part of my life.
