'''About Tara (general):'''
Tara Rahmani is a Junior Senior Industrial Engineering and User Experience student at the Milwaukee School of Engineering (MSOE). She wants to be an Industrial Engineer in the healthcare industry, preferably in a hospital, with the goal of decreasing the number of medical errors per year. She gets excited about innovation and opportunities to be creative -- especially when in the realm of human-centered design.
Tara has been involved with the 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. 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.
