Hi! I'm Becca (they/them), and I'm from Tucson, Arizona. I'm part of the class of 2026 and I'm majoring in mechanical engineering. On campus, I can also be found in Combat Robotics, OFAC (fire spinning), OPEN (Olin's LGBTQ club), and I have an on-campus job. In my free time, I can be found reading, hiking, or relaxing in Parcel B. Ask me about campus jobs, research, study away, LGBTQ life, coding, or anything else you want to know about Olin!

Hello there! My name is Allan (he/him), and I'm currently studying electrical and computer engineering as part of the Class of 2026. I'm a big fan of reading, running, collecting retro stuff, and exploring foreign countries. One of my favorite hobbies is repairing old technology and creating new projects. During my time at Olin, I have had the opportunity to work on various non-academic electrical projects with my friends, including developing my own 8-bit computer and creating my own GameBoy game. I've been fortunate to have the support of Olin's community of students and professors who have helped me achieve these goals. If you're interested in learning more about ECE or just want to chat about my hobbies, feel free to reach out! 

I’m Noah Woosley (any pronouns) from Nixa, Missouri. I’m planning on majoring in Electrical and Computer Engineering. At Olin I’ve been part of the team creating the Design Challenge this past year, as well as running an Instagram page for a plastic skeleton named Stanley with a friend. I am also part of the leadership team for OPEN, a club providing community and support for LGBTQIA+ students on campus. I enjoy hanging out in Parcel B with friends and crochet.

Hey all! I'm Ike Walker (he/him) from Sapulpa, Oklahoma. I'm a part of the Class of '26 and I'm planning on majoring in Mechanical Engineering with a focus in Sustainability.

I do a lot on campus so feel free to reach out to me about anything! I'm a shop assistant for Olin shops, a tour guide, a leader in a student activism group on campus, a member of the Honor Board, will be a Resident Resource (R2) next year, and am casually involved in a couple other clubs. Along with that, I spend a lot of time in the pool room and jam room and love the outdoors (please ask me about all the fun stuff in Parcel B cause I have spent WAY too much time exploring back there haha)! I come from a non-STEM high school - I hadn't taken a single engineering course or extracurricular before coming to Olin - so if you have any questions about navigating that transition too, don't hesitate to reach out! Happy to answer any questions y'all might have about anything!

Hi! My name is Hong (he/him), and I’m from the Bronx, New York. I’m in the class of 2028 and plan to major in Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE). I’m passionate about computer science and product management. You’ll often find me meeting new people, hanging out with friends, playing video games, or working out at the gym. I’m involved in a variety of clubs and spend a lot of time on Babson’s campus as well, so feel free to ask me about anything—from transitioning from high school to Olin to the dynamic between Olin and Babson!

Hello! My name is Pauline Petersen (she/her). I'm an avid unicyclist from Portland, Oregon currently studying mechanical engineering. At Olin College, I serve as the project manager for the Aero Project Team, where we're building a model self-flying aircraft for competition. I am also involved in the Olin sailing team, beekeeping, unicycling, and fire arts club. You might even catch me juggling fire on my unicycle. 

Since Olin is part of a three-college collaboration, I have taken several business classes at Babson and joined the dance group at Wellesley. 

When I'm not on campus, you'll find me commuting by unicycle as I explore the greater Boston area. Don’t hesitate to reach out if you have questions about academic or student life!

Hi! I'm Tabitha, a third-year mechanical engineering student at Olin from both Germany and the UK. Since my family often moves countries, I’m currently living between Athens, Greece, and Melbourne, Australia—I call many places home, but my heart is always in Greece! On campus, I’m an International Program Ambassador (IPA), a member of SWE and the Formula SAE vehicle team. I also enjoy ceramics classes at Babson College. Some of my favourite Olin memories include playing volleyball with friends and enjoying meals with groups on the great lawn on sunny days.

I chose Olin for its hands-on, project-based approach to engineering and the chance to study in a new country. I was drawn to the close-knit, supportive community. Engineering programs in my home countries tend to focus more on theory, so Olin’s practical emphasis really stood out to me! My advice to prospective students is to get involved and learn about Olin as much as possible! Olin is a unique place where the right fit is crucial, so explore its culture and community to see how it aligns with your goals. 

Feel free to reach out if you want to chat! I can help with adjusting to life abroad, F-1 visa tips, or discovering Boston. You can contact me via WhatsApp at +30 697 184 1562 or email.

Hi, I'm Maya! I'm from Redmond, WA and I'm studying Mechanical Engineering as part of the Class of 2027. Outside of classes, I've been involved with a variety of clubs (combat robotics, unicycling, art), education research, robotics research, and SWE (Society of Women Engineers). I'm especially interested in accessibility technology. Outside of engineering, my main hobbies are drawing and painting, anything crafty, and jogging. I'd love to talk and answer any questions you might have!
