AIAA Brings “Good Vibrations” to GESTEM

less than 1 minute read

Published:

I volunteered with the Rocky Mountain section of AIAA at the Girls Exploring STEM (GESTEM) event! We hosted a workshop titled “Good Vibrations”: an acoustics-based activity where students learned about the physics of sound through wind chimes. It was awesome to connect with other members of AIAA while giving back to the Denver community!

I was honored to speak on the Engineering Graduate School Panel at the 2025 Physics and Astronomy Congress in Denver, Colorado, hosted by AIP and the Society of Physics Students/Sigma Pi Sigma Honor Society (SPS)! I would not be where I am today without my alma mater’s local SPS chapter, and it’s always a privledge to give back and de-mystify the not-so-scary journey from Physics to Engineering!
