Big Brothers Big Sisters

Mentor

Mentored my Little (6 years old) by tutoring her in her first and second grade classes, showing and leading her with examples of when to be polite, and overall being a role-model
Planned a lemonade stand with her by letting her pick the location, the price, and how to market and presenting an opportunity for learning entrepreneur skills
Coordinated a fundraising event by myself in order to raise awareness of BBBS and to raise money for the Great Big Challenge. For every $10 donated, I would practice lacrosse for an hour and post updates on my progress. My overall goal was $100 and I surpassed it by a total of $160.

Leadership Education and Development Program Participant

Took part in a 10 hour overnight case study on rejuvenating the community of Rose-Hulman's hometown and presented to various companies along with the Rose-Hulman executive board and the mayor of Terre Haute, winning 1st place
Addressed a crisis during a simulation and administered roles to other members while leading our team through multiple obstacles. In order to do so, communication, an understanding of roles, and open-mindedness was needed, along with understanding of each person's abilities and weaknesses. I have participated in the LEAD Crisis Simulation three times.
Completed the Leadership Academy Program where I took a Myers Briggs test and applied situational and transformational leadership styles to various situations and simulations

Society of Hispanic Professional Engineers

President | Academic Chair

Selected to attend National Conferences for four years and Regional Conferences for three. During these conferences I participated in the Academic Olympiad Test against 30 other schools, placing 3rd, and presented for multiple overnight case studies. During Nationals, I have interviewed with multiple companies and have established connections that are still relevant to-day
Arranged and implemented a website system for our members to keep record of our file system, check on upcoming events, and answer polls and give feedback about the chapter
Utilized different formats for communicating with my executive board and chair members. I established exec meetings and chair meetings when needed and supported the chapter by creating more structure and organization

Attended multiple workshops throughout my college career focused on leadership, such as: Lean Six Sigma: 8 Wastes, Effective Communication, Building High Performing Teams, Six Sigma & Universal Engineering Practices, and Development Ladder Workshop
Improved processes for different companies by participating in 5s and Kaizen events. Most recently I coordinated a Kaizan plan to be implemented in the engineering department, more specifically for their NPI process, and suggested doing the following activities: current and future state process flow maps, a fishbone diagram, a standard pig activity, and a value stream map. I emphasized the importance of standardization and different functions within their system and influenced a conversation among the managers and the CEO of the company
I am not afraid to ask questions when I don't understand a concept or a conveyed idea - I would rather know how to approach a problem for future reference than to save face and never ask.
