I read books daily.
I'm Evalyn, a first-year Biological & Agricultural Engineering undergraduate at North Carolina State University, majoring in Biological Engineering. I hope to also earn Minors in French and Entomology. I have a deep passion for science, plants, and feeding people. I have spent the last four years volunteering at Rise Up Community Farm, a local non-profit farm growing fresh produce for our food pantry. I hope to pursue a career where I will use engineering to solve large global challenges involving hunger and famine. ——— > NC STATE HIGHLIGHTS: • 3.7 GPA • Major: Biological & Agricultural Engineering, Minors: French and Entomology • NC State Fellowship (sponsored by SECU) • Engineers Without Borders - NC State Chapter • American Society of Agricultural and Biological Engineers • NC State Beekeepers > H.S.
