Hi, I am Katie West. I am a junior at Sam Houston State University, pursuing a degree in Physics with a minor in Mathematics. I work in the Physics Department at Sam Houston teaching undergraduate physics labs and doing undergraduate research. I am also a member of Sigma Sigma Sigma Sorority, the Society of Physics Students, and Sigma Pi Sigma Fraternity. I was a Texas High School Aerospace Scholar the summer of 2004. I graduated from McKinney High School in McKinney, TX in 2005.
My ambition is to become an astronaut. NASA has always been a part of my dreams and now it will be part of my reality. I look forward to getting to know everybody this summer. |
