Major: Electrical Engineering

Why I'm a mentor

I think it is important for kids to have someone to look up to and help them when they get stuck in school. This is our chance to impact their lives and help recruit them into engineering.

What I'm working on

I'm currently taking senior level courses in electrical engineering. I'm involved in the IEEE, which is a professional organization that serves as a link between electrical engineering professionals and students to help us get prepared for the real world.

As a Red Raider, I'm one-of-a-kind because I'm from Kerala, India.

Why I like Texas Tech

I picked Texas Tech because it was recommended to me by a cousin in Dallas. I also like Tech because of its well-known project lab system which gives you a lot of hands on experience.

What I plan to do

After graduating, students in my major end up working in all kinds of engineering jobs. I would like to work in my field for awhile and then come back to school for my master's degree.
