Spotlight on Nathaniel Asia
My enthusiasm for technology and engineering has propelled me to explore the intersection of these dynamic fields. During a transformative summer at Rubrik in Palo Alto, California, and a previous internship at Comcast in Philadelphia, PA, I honed my skills and gained invaluable hands-on experience. Beyond internships, my year-round role as an electrical engineering lead on the Duke Motorsports team has provided me with a platform to drive meaningful advancements, further fueling my passion for innovation. My post-graduation plans are still being solidified, but at the moment, I'll be entering a software engineering position in Palo Alto, CA.
