My mom would often take me to her work, and while one of the perks was the stickers, I think my exposure to industry is a big part of the reason I wanted to become an engineer. This scholarship will go a long way in financing my education, and I cannot be more excited.” Henry Bair 66 • OCTOBER 2023 • PPAI Must Read | PPEF
