Petridoa:

Aikaterini Petridou(Katerina) is a University Innovation Fellow and an undergraduate student studying Computer Engineering and Mathematics at Union College, NY. Katerina has a twin brother and she comes from Thessaloniki, Greece. She is very grateful for the unique opportunity that was offered to her to pursue her passion in computer science and electrical engineering at Union College. Katerina always loved connecting with people and creating a positive impact on others, thus she became a Resident Advisor from her sophomore year including her junior year. Katerina loves challenging herself academically and pushing her limits. She was curious and interested in robotics since 9th grade and was actively participating in robotics club. Once she came at Union College she joined from her first trimester the research team supervised by professor John Riefffel to learn and work on the soft robot, “tensegrity robot”. She was fascinated by the mechanics of a tensegrity system and her passion for robotics intrigued her to continue conducting research till this year including both past summers. She really enjoyed working in teams in either the hardware or the software aspect of it. She is a co-author of the scientific paper“Low-Cost Wireless Modular Soft Tensegrity Robots” that was published and she presented it at IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation. Future goals include an internship and PhD in the field of computer science, artificial intelligence.

Petridoa:

Buenos. Bom dia. Ça va? I’m Blake Newcomer majoring in Geoscience Analysis and Design at Union College. I am proud to be Co-President of Entrepreneurs of the Nott (EON), which was founded this fall term of 2019 by a fantastic group of wonderful people. Academically, I am gravitate to biogeochemistry and hydrology, I enjoy data analytic work in R, and learning about the design process has been the most fun of my collegiate career. Future goals include: fellowship after graduating, likely graduate school, and a career in the design (IDEO & Hello Monday I’m making direct eye contact with you). Fun Fact: I sing, play the guitar and the piano, and I play gigs with my sister and dad. Let me know if you are interested in hiring us!

Fellow:Sai Lyon Ho

Petridoa:

Sai Lyon Ho is a University Innovation Fellow and an undergraduate student studying Computer Science, Economics and Chinese at Union College. Sai is originally from Caracas, Venezuela where he lived until 2018 when he moved to Brooklyn, NY for college. During high school he developed a strong curiosity and knowledge in the finance industry, but his deep interest in how technology can impact our society led him to study computer science and hopefully be able to combine skills from both fields to bring an innovative idea to life.
