Taking the lead of a group of 8 people from a previously 1.5-year running project, this volunteer project was used to inspire over 50 K-12th graders into STEM fields through the Purdue Engineering Outreach club. To do this, my team made instructions for how to lead this project, a presentation to teach kids about the car's engineering/science, and a parts list to let the students build their own cars. My biggest challenge was learning how to lead and effectively organize team meetings to ensure that tasks were done on time by setting short and long-term goals. In the video are many of my teammates. Please click on the picture to watch the video. 

While I was elected Project Manager the next year, making me in charge of every sub-team within PEO, one of my favorite teams (and the one that I retired from my position as Team Lead as), was this Rubberband Powered Zipline. Finished under the current Team Lead, Jacob Whitehouse, with my guidance above him and his teammates, I'm excited to see the project being brought to kids. The goal is for students to build the coaster's body, considering aerodynamics and structural design, to be the fastest across a room on fishing line string. As of today, this team is working on creating a Beyblades-style project. Other teams under my supervision include a bridge project, a potato-powered electrical circuit, DIY musical instruments, a catapult-resistant house design, and a robotic gripper tool.
