Maggie first found an interest in using design thinking during her first semester at Wichita State when she took the freshman seminar Introduction to Technology and Innovation. This course came with the requirement to use the design thinking process, which was taught in class, to come up with a product. She and her team created a revolutionary doorstop called Lyfelock that was created as an extra barrier to be put in place during an emergent hostile situation in a school setting. The team was one of the five teams to qualify for the final round of the Koch Innovation Challenge. In the end, Lyfelock won the People’s Choice award.
Since joining UIFMaggie was recently recognized as an Outstanding Undergraduate Student Leader at Wichita State University for her involvement. On top of being a University Innovation Fellow, Maggie she has also been working on a project called Shocker Study Spacesinvolved with Gamma Phi Beta and Start Up Grind U, where she held many leadership position. While interviewing students In her time at Wichita StateUniversity she has also competed, she noticed and placed in many students said they were going to design competitions, including, the same two locations on campus to studyKoch Innovation Challenge, but not really enjoying being there. Upon further investigationShocker New Venture, it was realized that there were many other places to study on campusInvent for the Planet, students just didn’t know those places were thereand the Airbus Wing Box Challenge. Shocker Study Spaces will create maps of campus to raise awareness of these great study places so that students can truly use She loves sharing information with others and was a featured speaker at the 2020 Women in STEAM Gala and a student presenter for the space given to them2019 Midwest Section ASEE Conference.
Outside of UIF, Maggie is involved in several activities. She a member of Gamma Phi Beta as well as the Honors College. She spent her freshman year living the in the Engineering Living Learning Community, which is a floor of the dorms that is made entirely of engineers so that students can get to know each other and support each other in classes. She is also an Engineering Ambassador which allows her to tell prospective engineering students about her experiences at Wichita State.=Related Links=
