Raleigh native Juliet Simpson ’18 muscles her way through senior year with dreams of landing a master’s degree in mechanical engineering.

Goodnight Scholars Program: Tell us a little bit about yourself.

Juliet Simpson ’18: I am a senior in mechanical engineering at NC State. I grew up in North Raleigh, a short 25 minute drive from State. I love to travel and am constantly looking for new ways to explore the world. Through travel and my passion for the environment, I became interested in sustainability and renewable energy. I hope to make a difference in the world by researching energy generation and how we can power our world in a way that does not negatively affect the environment. I discovered new hobbies at State that have become a huge part of my life. I started rock climbing at the climbing wall in Carmichael Gymnasium and now climb regularly at a local indoor climbing gym. Also I learned my first social dance when I attended a contra dance in Talley Student Union and fell in love with dance. Now I dance West Coast Swing or Blues at least once a week! I spend time outside whenever I can, practicing handstands in the grass outside Engineering Building 3 or running around Lake Johnson. Overall, I stay busy and make the most of my time outside of the classroom.
