“SWE has been a great support system for me in college and during the start of my professional career. From conferences, leadership summits, and friendships to outreach events and career opportunities SWE has truly fulfilled more than I could have imagined when I joined 7 years ago. I’m excited to be a part of SWE as it continues to grow and hope that fellow engineers have similar experiences finding support and community through SWE!”
