Katherine SchieltzKatherine Schieltz, Administrative Project Lead

"I am a senior studying Chemical Engineering and minoring in Psychology at Purdue. I have a specific interest in sustainability, and I will be working in the chemical sensor industry when I graduate. In my free time I love spending time with animals and reading science fiction books. I joined the Engineering Gift Guide two years ago as a reviewer, and this is my second year as the Administrative Project Lead."

AR MillerAR Miller, Review Team Lead

“I am currently a junior in Aeronautical and Astronautical Engineering, with my primary interest being rocket avionics. In my free time, I enjoy reading, cooking with friends, and participating in VEX robotics with the Purdue SIGBots Robotics team. After I graduate, I hope to work in Mission Control for a space agency. This is my second year with the guide; I spent one year as a Reviewer, and this is my first year as the Review Team Lead. I also edited all of the detailed reviews. I hope you enjoy reading the guide as much as we enjoyed writing it!”

Claudia JohnsonClaudia Johnson, Gift Guide Reviewer

“I’m a senior studying Interdisciplinary Engineering Studies with coursework focused on safety engineering and public health. This is my first year as a gift guide reviewer, but I also have lots of other involvement at Purdue including being a member of Phi Sigma Rho Sorority and the President of the Multidisciplinary Engineering Student Society. I love spending time outdoors, baking, and crafting. After graduation, I will be moving to Colorado and starting my professional career in emergency management!”

“I am a sophomore studying Engineering Technology Teacher Education through the Polytechnic Institute at Purdue. This is my first year as a reviewer for the Engineering Gift Guide, but I have been working with and learning about engineering education for over two years. I enjoy cooking, making crafts, and playing video games in my free time. After I graduate, I plan on teaching engineering classes in a public high school.

“I am a sophomore planning to study Multidisciplinary Engineering with a concentration in Visual Design. I plan to use my degree to work on designing products that are visually appealing while also being useful and sustainable. I love to bake, listen to musicals, and play videogames. This is my first year as a gift guide reviewer, but I have been a part of the Purdue 3D Printing Club for two years as a Supervisor and Lab Assistant.”
