Just like the antennas she works on that can change their shape and frequency on demand, ECE junior Lauren Chikofsky has learned to hone her technical and leadership skills to respond to the challenges of being a student leader. The Executive Chair of Women in ECE (WinECE) won a Boeing Scholarship with ECE senior Mark Hairgrove and also makes time for undergraduate research and to assist with the pre-college program that led her to ECE.
