a. My name is Qiu Wong and I’m a senior majoring in Mechanical Engineering. I’m heavily involved with the rowing team on campus, and also participate in Habitat for Humanity’s builds.
b. One of the things that I was proudest in making was helping to build a basement from scratch. I was volunteering with All Hands Volunteers for a summer in Detroit, where we rebuilt basements which have been torn down after severe damage caused by a flood.

d. I’ll really like to learn how to use most of the machines available in the OEDK, especially the different 3D printers.
