Hello! My name is Kavya and I'm a sophomore undergraduate at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign for Mechanical Engineering, with a minor in Tech & Management. I love architecture, Formula 1, and hope to use my engineering skills to create human-centered and sustainable solutions to problems. In high school was on NNHS' competitive robotics team (FRC League). I was CSO, Mechanical Build Leader, Drive Coach, and Chairman's Lead. Now, I am a member of UIUC's Baja SAE team, where I've been leading projects for the Chassis and Drivetrain subteams. Using my leadership, management, and engineering skills, I aim to use my education to help those around me. I hope to make a positive impact to as many people as I can creating innovative solutions with my engineering skills and spreading that impact with my business education. Specifically, through sustainable innovation new technology can help people while replacing harmful practices of the past. Technologies like EVs, renewable fuel for planes, and sustainable housing + development are some areas of interest where I want to make an impact--in addition to positive social impact in the STEM field.
