I joined Engineers Without Borders as a student at IIT. With a team of classmates and professional mentors, we raised funds for and installed a solar power electrical system at a secondary school in Pignon, Haiti.

Now that I am a professional, I would like to continue giving students the opportunity to work on infrastructure projects in communities that want their help. Every year, the Chicagoland Professional Chapter awards grants to student projects.
