Bio

Hi, my name is Eesha! I intend to pursue a degree in Mechanical Engineering, as I've always been interested in its concepts, such as math, physics, hardware, and software. I am very passionate about robotics, especially using robotics to improve the world around us. I am the captain of my school's Underwater Robotics team, which creates a robot capable of performing tasks to increase the health of the marine ecosystem. I am also an ardent supporter of the arts. I have helped organize three city festivals dedicated to promoting the work of makers and artists. I am also a member of the Mayor's Youth Council, which is committed to improving our community, such as through increasing access to feminine hygiene products and improving mental health awareness. In my free time, I have been teaching myself coding. I enjoy learning and working on programming projects whenever I get a chance. I am passionate about encouraging other students to start or continue their coding journeys as well. As the Virtual Events Lead at the nonprofit Hack Club, I manage virtual events for an international community of teenage coders. I hope to be able to use the knowledge that I have gained so far, as well as continue to learn as I pursue Mechanical Engineering, to make the world I live in a better place.
