Hi everyone! 

My name is Kennice-Vikki, and I'm a senior studying Mechanical Engineering at NYU Tandon School of Engineering! Aside from my love for all things pink, pretty, and a little extra, I have an even bigger love for engineering, especially robotics! I also have the absolute pleasure of serving as President of our chapter of the National Society of Black Engineers (NSBE).

As President, one of my biggest goals is to ensure that our members have access to opportunities that allow them to grow, connect, and truly see what's possible for their futures.

Our chapter is filled with incredibly talented, hardworking, and passionate students, and I want to make sure that finances never stand in the way of the experiences they deserve.

Through our Rising Violets campaign, we're raising funds to send our members to conferences like FRC and Nationals, expand our events and programming, create merchandise, and continue building a community that our members are proud to be a part of.

I truly believe that when we pour into our students, the impact extends far beyond their time in college. We're not just supporting future engineers; we're investing in future leaders, innovators, and changemakers. Every donation, no matter the size, helps us get one step closer to that vision.

Our roots are strong, but with your support, there's no limit to how much we can grow. 

Whether you're able to donate, share our campaign, or simply spread the word, your support means more to us than you know. Every little bit helps us continue growing and creating opportunities for our members.

Thank you for believing in our chapter and helping us continue to bloom!

Hey everyone!

My name is Jayshawn Brown, and I'm a graduate student studying Computer Engineering at NYU Tandon School of Engineering! I'm passionate about all things technology, especially embedded systems and firmware, and I love getting to work on projects that bring hardware and software together. Outside of the classroom, I have the pleasure of serving as the External Vice President of NYU's chapter of the National Society of Black Engineers (NSBE), after previously serving as our Academic Excellence Chair.

NSBE has been a big part of my college experience, and one of the things I value most about this organization is the community it creates. Being surrounded by other Black engineers who are just as driven, passionate, and motivated to succeed makes a huge difference. As External Vice President, one of my biggest goals is to help create more opportunities for our members, build meaningful relationships with industry partners, and make sure our students have access to resources that will help them succeed both in and outside the classroom.

Our chapter is filled with talented students with so much potential, and I believe that access to opportunities should never be the thing holding anyone back. Through our Rooted in Excellence campaign, we're raising funds to help members attend conferences like the Fall Regional Conference and National Convention, expand our programming, host engaging events, and continue building a community that our members can be proud of.

I truly believe NSBE is about more than just getting a degree or landing a job. It's about building connections, finding your community, and creating opportunities for the people coming after you. The impact of investing in Black engineers goes far beyond college, and I want to do my part in making sure our chapter continues to grow and create that impact.

Our roots are strong, but with your support, there's no limit to what we can accomplish together. Every donation, no matter the amount, makes a difference and helps us continue opening doors for the next generation of engineers.

Thank you for supporting NYU NSBE and helping us keep growing!
