In the second episode of my college experience solo series, I share how I made it through engineering school without pulling a single all-nighter, while still landing my dream job. From learning to ask for opportunities (even when it’s uncomfortable) to finding community in my cohort, I break down the strategies that kept me grounded and thriving. I also get real about impostor syndrome and the importance of perseverance, especially in a field designed to challenge you. Finally, I talk about how to recognize your strengths, pursue what excites you (like space toilets!), and chase your goals boldly. This episode is full of honest advice and motivation for any aerospace nerd, college student, or otherwise.
