Who is Genna?
I came here with another career path in mind. And to play soccer. But things change—and Illinois Tech gave me the opportunities to push myself in a new direction. I found another path as a civil engineering student, and I’ve taken advantage of all the opportunities presented to me through student groups, competitions, and internships. And I couldn’t be prouder of who and where I am today.
That’s Interesting
I’m involved with the Steel Bridge competition. We design the bridge, then we fabricate it, and we compete with it. We build it under a time limit, and we load it with a bunch of weights. It’s not necessarily something I’ll do in my professional career, but it’s something I really value with regard to developing soft and hard skills.
