Meet Jenn

Now a software engineer at Open Robotics in Silicon Valley, Jenn realized her passion for robotics while completing her Computer Science senior project and working with the WVU Interactive Robotics Laboratory.

"I fell in love with robotics. I fell in love with the camaraderie. I fell in love with the people."

That led her to pursue her master's degree in Mechanical Engineering, where she worked on BrambleBee, an autonomous pollination robot that could one day lower the cost of food for people around the world.
