Charles McNamara

The Master’s was appealing as a way to differentiate myself from other job applicants as I entered the increasingly competitive professional world, especially with the low time commitment. I found myself aligning most closely with Mechanical, in part because it is what I was most capable of and also what I found myself enjoying most.”
