WHAT I'M WORKING ON
NOBLE BLACKRHINO + NOBLE HEADQUATER TOUR
As part of the Noble–UT Drilling Innovation Challenge, my team and I developed a downhole instability sensor to detect wellbore instability in real time, aiming to improve drilling efficiency and reduce nonproductive time. Despite an early team setback, I regrouped with new teammates and we earned 4th place overall. The experience included touring the Noble BlackRhino drillship and visiting Noble Corporation’s headquarters in Houston, offering invaluable insight into offshore drilling operations. This opportunity strengthened my leadership, adaptability, and technical problem-solving skills while bridging classroom learning with real-world application.
PGE FALL RETREAT
I participated in the Fall Retreat, a two-day event designed for first-year and transfer students to connect with peers, faculty, and industry professionals. The retreat featured team-building activities, faculty talks, and guest speakers from the petroleum and geosystems industry. Through this experience, I built meaningful connections with fellow PGE students and alumni while gaining valuable insights into my field of interest.
I attended a two-day leadership conference designed for on-campus residents, focused on developing leadership skills and building community. Through interactive workshops, group dialogues, and camp-themed activities, I connected with like-minded students across diverse majors and built lasting friendships. During the volunteering session, I applied my communication skills and attention to detail to support faculty and ease the challenges of centralized move-in, reinforcing my ability to lead and collaborate under pressure.
WOMEN IN STEM EXTERNSHIP
This externship was a virtual learning experience for STEM students to gain career skills and earn digital badges or microcredentials during the summer break. Through this program, I strengthened my professional confidence, expanded my STEM knowledge, and gained practical skills to advance my career development. The experience also gave me the opportunity to connect and collaborate with fellow STEM students across the program, making it both meaningful and impactful during my summer break.
