Hi! I am Kathryn Wu, currently a sophomore attending Charlotte Latin School. Before moving here in 8th grade, I grew up in Houston, Texas.Â
This is my digital portfolio, which documents all the Engineering I have done since 9th grade. Prior to that, I had never had the opportunity to take an engineering course at school and had never been inside a Fab Lab. My earlier encounters with engineering were from extracurricular classes or summer progams, one where I built a robot and another that was on Ozobots.
Since joining Latin, I have worked on many projects. My favorite projects have been ones that combine with art in some way: my EE Capstone Project, a 3-Axis Drawing Machine; my EDMII Final Project, a Resin Cutting Board; and a pen I hand-made using our woodworking equipment. In addition to curricular assignments, I have documented here the work I have done for Pre-Fab Academy.
Aside from Engineering and STEM, I have an affinity for the arts and humanities. I have been drawing and painting since I was five and frequently participate in art-related competitions. I am an avid debater as well and regularly travel to compete at tournaments along. More on the humanities side, I love creative writing.
