Segment #8

By Aisling Ong Yee Ling

Let me introduce myself.

I study mechanical engineering year 1. I love to dance and I love to try new things!

Why did you decide to join HW Raacing Team?

I’ve always had an interest in building cars although I never went out of my way to learn, joining this team was my step taken to be part of something I’m passionate and excited about.

What have you learned so far in terms of technical knowledge and/or personal growth?

By being in this team, I observed how the different departments work together to forming the whole car as one, and the willingness of each member to contribute when needed.

This motivated me to make myself a good team member, to volunteer to do things, contribute to group discussions and meetings. Spending long hours in the lab can be quite exhausting, but at the end of the day I feel a sense of accomplishment when a job is done.

Any encouragement you would like to give to newcomers or to anyone in public?

If you have even a slight interest in this, I urge you to join the team, because well, we get to build a car! Don’t be scared to put yourself out there and participate.
