'''About Tara has been involved with the&nbsp;Society of Women Engineers (SWE) since the end of her freshman year. She held the position of Outreach Chair her sophomore year and hosted events such as Hands-On Future, Siblings in STEM, and various other events with different classes from Milwaukee area schools and Girl Scout Troops. Her junior year she became section president.&nbsp; Tara:'''s goal as President of this section was to continuously improve the already exemplary SWE section and to expand their outreach to all grades, K-12, and to more MSOE students. This year, she began a mentoring program for their members called SWE Women In Mentoring (SWIM). It allows the current officers and professional engineers in Wisconsin to act as mentors to the general members, whether it be in their academic, professional, or personal life.

Hey, I'm Tara is also an advisor for the first SWE Next section in . :) Life has been pretty wild. Expect the state unexpected, that type of Wisconsin at South Milwaukee High Schoolwild. SWE Next is a SWE section for middle and Since leaving high school students, I've been chasing my tail trying to figure out what I want to do, who I want to be, etc etc and all that jazz. UIF played a big part in that.&nbsp; She is acting as Being apart of a community full of designers all leading with love has been a mentor for priceless opportunity. Design thinking really re-designed my life. And then God came into the picture around age 25 and I did the members best 180 in life. I no longer felt lost, knowing my identity in Him and helping them plan events such as plant tours walking in His unmovable peace. TLDR; God's love and hands-on workshopsUIF's empathetic design have really shaped my life wonderfully. I could gush for a long time about these topics, so just hit me up via email/call/text if you wanna chat.:)

Aside from I get excited about innovation and opportunities to be creative -- especially when in the realm of human-centered design #uiforbust. During my time at MSOE, I was heavily involved with the Society of Women Engineers (SWE) as an Outreach Coordinator, Tara is and eventually President, hosting STEAM events with kids K-12 and college students. I spent my last year of school as a member of Lambda Zeta Nu sorority at MSOEResident Assistant to 35 lovely humans and really enjoyed getting to know these individuals and watch them grow.Junior &nbsp; She has held Senior year UIF really became the position pinnacle of Educational Chair and Treasurermy college career - this program is THAT cool.

She About me personally, I like to jam a lot to different music - one of my favorite parts of the meetup is now asking people what their favorite songs are from all around the Parliamentarian for Student Governmentworld.&nbsp; Her duties are to facilitate meetings while I also contributing and advocating like to dance - whether it's in the conversation around what kitchen or on the students on campus want dance floor - I always got a little boogie in me. I enjoy meeting new people (especially fellows <3) and needhearing about their lives, especially when it's over shared food.#foodie
