El Apintal, Honduras

In May 2022, I participated in a week-long service trip in Honduras to design a clean water system for an underdeveloped community of 300 people. This service trip was an important and educational opportunity to act on becoming a societal engineer and giving back to the communities around us. I plan on continuing to take part in similar service trips throughout and past my time at Boston University. I am already taking more action by becoming the vice president of fundraising for our local school chapter of Engineering Brigades.

The impact we had can be seen in the figure to the right and more images from the service trip can be found below.
