How did you learn about AIChE and why did you join?

I learned about AIChE through the online orientation club fair. I was pretty brain dead after spending days staring at zoom, but when I heard about this community of chemical engineers, I immediately wanted to join.

How has AIChE helped you grow professionally and/or personally?

I just joined! However, I've already gotten some interview practice and got to meet so many wonderful people. I'm looking forward to working more with them and getting experience as part of this board.

What's one interesting fact about you? 

In my free time, I love screenwriting and watching movies.

If you could bring one item with you to a deserted island (aside from food and water), what would it be and why?

A surfboard. I would be very disappointed in myself I wasn't able to surf really well after being stranded on a beach. Plus, I could float around and eat food.
