Hi folks! I’m Vedaant (he/him), from Bangalore, India. I’m in the Class of 2024, and I’ll be majoring in E:Computing. At Olin, I’m involved in the MIX (the Multicultural Innovators eXperience) OCJ (Olin Climate Justice), and the Indian Club. I'm also an ARC (an Academic Resource Co-designer; it's unique to Olin!), a Peer Advocate, and worked in the international students office. My brain is consistently occupied with things like climate justice, student support, and reflecting on my cultural identity. Apart from that, I love biking, playing the piano, bingeing YouTube, and much more. I’d love to answer questions about everything I spoke about above (and much more I can’t fit in here), so reach out to me about anything!

Hi! I'm Becca (they/them) and I'm from Tucson, Arizona. I'm planning on majoring in Engineering with a concentration in computing, and even outside of class I'm always working with computers. On campus, I can also be found juggling, spinning fire with OFAC, doing martial arts, making glass art, 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!

Hi! My name is Ava (she/her), I am from Baltimore, Maryland. I am in the class of 2026. I plan to major in Mechanical Engineering. I am passionate about user-centered design, sustainability and everything STEM. You will often find me in one of Olin’s many maker-spaces around campus or learning new skills such as fire throwing, wood working, or screen printing. Some of my hobbies include crocheting, watching TED talks, exploring museums, and hanging out with friends.

Hello! My name is Mark Belanger and I’m from Southern New Hampshire. I am part of the Class of 2026 and I plan on majoring in Electrical and Computer Engineering. Here at Olin, I am part of the Baja SAE team where we design and build a four wheel drive off road vehicle that will be used in the annual Baja SAE competition. I am also involved with on campus research with a professor as an independent study. I am a first-generation college student and can talk about navigating the college search, application, and selection process as a first-generation student. Outside of Olin I am an avid hiker and enjoy spending my time in the beautiful While Mountains of New Hampshire. Please reach out with any questions!

Howdy! I'm Kelsey (he/him), from Norwalk, CT. I'm in the class of 2026 and my major is currently undecided. At Olin I'm involved in music as a transcriber for the Olin Conductorless Orchestra (OCO) and as a hobbyist guitarist. For an engineering student I don't have many STEM related hobbies, but at Olin I've found the time to go for long walks, make mini art projects, solve picross puzzles, and write songs between my class work. I'm also a Sea Scout, trying to keep up with rank advancement while at college, and interested in all things nautical! You can talk to me about LGBT+ culture at Olin, music at Olin, and anything else you might have questions on!

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!
