Meet MESA
Marcus is in his 5th and final year of studying mechanical engineering at CSU. He chose to study MECH because of the wide range of subjects he could pursue a career in, but hopes to go into the aerospace industry. His favorite engineering course has been Mechatronics. In his spare time, Marcus enjoys hiking and mountain biking in the summer and snowboarding in the winter.
Marcus Amrine 
Heaven is a fourth year mechanical engineering student. Coming into college, she chose to major in MECH because she loves the design process and creating things. Her favorite thing about being a MECH student is being able to see all of the things she's been learning applied in everyday life. Her favorite course so far was Mechatronics with Dr.Zhao. During her free time she likes to read and do hair.
Heaven Smith 
Ellie is in her 4th year of the mechanical engineering program. She chose MECH because she wanted to help people as much as possible, and figured engineering was a great way to go about doing that. Her favorite thing about engineering is the people that she's met, both staff and students. Her favorite course so far has been Intro to Manufacturing because it gave her the opportunity to turn the knowledge learned in class into a tangible object. In her free time, she likes to go on road trips and go skiing.
Ellie Cautilli 
Maguire is a fourth year mechanical engineering student. He chose MECH in the hope that someday he could support human space flight. His favorite course so far was Design 2. In his spare time he likes to ride motorcycles and spend time with his dog.
