<span style="font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size:medium;">Just like many other fellows, I wondered what I would get out of joining UIF. I had a friend who had previously gone through the UIF training and would always tell me how awesome UIF was and to consider applying to be a candidate. During that time, I had a full schedule trying to survive my school work and leading the IEEE student branch. My passion is to create opportunities for students to practice their technical engineering skills and networking events where employers can personally meet students.</span></span> <span style="textfont-alignsize: justifymedium;">At &nbsp<span style="font-family:verdana,geneva,sans-serif;">I never considered myself a social butterfly, but by getting involved in leadership positions in different organizations like SWE and Tau Beta Pi I learned that I loved to network.
