TSA (Technology Student Association) is a nationwide organization that promotes competition and growth in STEM and other fields of technologies. In North Carolina, TSA has hosted thousands of students for the state conferences.
TSA hosts competitions in events such as engineering design, architectural design, systems engineering, and includes concepts from fields of engineering such as civil, mechanical, and electrical engineering.
In my time at TSA I have placed (received recognition for top 3 in the state) for 3 events--2 times in engineering design and once for architectural design. Portfolios from each project are attached below.
In 2024, I again competed for engineering design--the topic revolved around health informatics and I went through the engineering design process to create a plausible solution along with real world applications of the solution. This placed 3rd Place at the NCTSA State Conference and 8th at the National Conference for TSA.
In 2023, I got 3rd place in the NCTSA State Conference for Engineering Design. The document attached is the portfolio that led to me receiving the award and allowed me to compete in the National TSA Conference, which hosted over 10,000 students in 2023.
In 2024, at the NC TSA State Conference I placed 1st for Architectural Design against 24 other groups in the state.
