My interest in engineering heightened during my internship in polytechnic where I was once given a task to assemble exercise equipment which was fun and it made me curious to explore more in other areas of engineering. Mechanical engineering seemed like the best and safest choice for me as there are many different pathways I could choose from when I graduate, even if I would like to get back into Biomedical engineering in the future. One of my strengths in communication is that I am able to present infront of a group of people as I had experience in leading the school for the national anthem during mornin...
