Howdy Everyone!
I am Sierra Quintana, a rising sophomore at the University of New Mexico. I am majoring in electrical engineering and pursuing a minor through the Honors College. My home has always been Albuquerque, New Mexico, so I have been surrounded by Lobo traditions my whole life. Though, I think it is important to note that I grew up an NMSU Aggie fan since both my parents are alum. Nevertheless, I am filled with Lobo Spirit now. It is very exciting to announce that I have the pleasure of being UNM’s Society of Women Engineers Outreach Co Chair for the 2021-2022 school year.

I am beyond excited to continue the amazing work that UNM SWE has been doing. It is my goal to expose students not yet at the collegiate level to the incredible opportunities that engineers have. I plan to use my connections to Cibola High School, NM MESA, and New Mexico’s VEX Robotics league to accomplish my objective. In addition to SWE, I am very involved around campus. I am an ASUNM Senator, and I want to encourage feedback from my peers so we can improve the UNM experience. Also, I have graduated from the Emerging Lobo Leaders program and I actively participate in ASUNM Community Experience. Additionally, I am part of Greek life through being a member of Kappa Kappa Gamma. Plus, I am also a member of UNM Circle K.
This summer has and is going to continue to be extremely busy. I have been working in a lab at the Center for High Technology Materials doing undergraduate research alongside graduate and PHD students since the start of the 2020 fall semester. Fun fact, I have actually been at CHTM since the summer of 2019 when I got a high school internship. In addition to lab work, I was chosen to be a New Student Orientation Leader. I am very excited to introduce new Lobo’s to all the great opportunities, like SWE, that UNM has to offer. I hope you all have a great summer, and I can’t wait to see everyone in-person in the fall!
