About Me

Welcome! My name is Alex Short and I am a second-year Mechanical Engineering student at The Ohio State University. I grew up in Archbold, Ohio, and graduated from Archbold High School in May 2017. At Ohio State, I am involved with the STEM (Science Technology Engineering and Mathematics) Exploration & Engagement Scholars program. Other organizations I am in include the Theme Park Engineering Group (TPEG), NeverWalkAlone, and Theta Chi International Fraternity. Following graduation, I plan to go to graduate school and then hope to land a job in the theme park engineering industry, a small but rapidly growing and exciting industry involving engineering and design.

I am extremely excited for all the academic, social, and personal enrichment opportunities that are available to me here at The Ohio State University, and cannot wait to see what is in store for me as I make my way toward the future.
