About Georgia

Hey! My name is Georgia Ross, and I'm an engineering student from Sarasota, Florida. As a third year at the University of Florida, I am pursing a bachelor's degree in mechanical engineering and a certificate in artificial intelligence fundamentals and applications.

Throughout my college journey, I have become an involved member in the marching band and taken part in undergraduate research. I am driven by my values of integrity, balance, service, and personal growth. My ultimate goal is to research and develop new technologies as an engineer, making a meaningful impact in the space and defense industries.
