My name is Abigail Garcia, I am a proud first-gen latina from East Los Angeles. As a rising senior in High School, I enjoy being involved in my community and extracurriculars during my free time. Growing up in a vibrant and diverse community has deeply shaped my perspective and fueled my ambition to contribute meaningfully to the world through engineering. I am particularly drawn to areas of engineering where I can contribute to sustainable development and community empowerment. Whether it's designing efficient systems or creating technologies that improve quality of life, I am eager to use my skills to benefit underserved communities and advocate for inclusivity in STEM.
