Bio
Hi my name is Abby Maltese and I am a junior engineering student at JMU. I am passionate about space exploration and hope to one day work as an aerospace engineer. Outside of school, I like sewing and traveling/exploring where I am. I am on the JMU Women's Soccer team which has given me so many opportunities and friendships. My goal for UIF is to leave a positive legacy at JMU and more specifically JMU Engineering. I hope to be a positive role model to other students and future JMU UIF cohorts.
