Artifacts
Three days before college started, I arrived on campus and moved in as a welcome leader. The OWLs (Ohio welcome leaders) are a group of people who help smooth the move in process by unloading cars and carrying belongings up to the rooms. Being an OWL was important to me because not only did I want to help other students transition into college, I wanted to meet new friends. Being an OWL helped increase my social skills by communicating with people I had never met before for the entire day. I think it is important to remember my experience as an OWL because I enjoyed helping and meeting new people much more than I thought I would.
About Me
Hi! My name is Jack Garner – I am a mechanical engineering major at The Ohio State University. My hobbies include rock climbing, swimming, photography, 3D printing, and flying drones. I also love to travel and am an avid adrenaline junkie.
My interest in STEM started at an early age. I have always enjoyed problem solving and welcome challenges. I have a passion for making things work better.
I am majoring in mechanical engineering and am hoping to obtain an internship for this summer. Before I headed off to OSU, I interned in the R&D lab at CVG (Commercial Vehicle Group), where I worked on numerous prototype projects and overhauled several of their industrial 3D printers. I am experienced in Java, Solidworks, Fusion 360, Excel, AutoCAD, various CAM/Slicing software, and proficient at machining.
