Interacting with other students in group activities helped simulate real teamwork situations you may face at work. My instructors did a great job relating lessons to real work experiences; I gained the knowledge as well as the confidence needed to be successful in my career.

Who would you like to thank as you finish your time at Purdue and start your career?
I would like to thank Sindie Ballotti for always giving me much-needed encouragement and making sure that I had all I needed to succeed and graduate. I also would like to thank Tammy Wolf for being such an inspirational and encouraging teacher.

Please tell us about a favorite class, project, experience or professor.
Tech 120 with Tammy Wolf. We worked in teams to come up with a marketable new product, research, build a prototype, and present it to the class. This was a great experience and a lot of fun.
