Welcome to SHPE Out Loud, the podcast that amplifies the voices of Hispanic leaders in STEM. In today's episode, we have the privilege of hearing from John Estrada, a computer engineering graduate from Purdue University, who immigrated from Ecuador to pursue his dreams. John shares how participating in SHPE design challenges enriched his engineering skills and shaped his career. Now, he utilizes technology to support surgeons through research and innovation. Stay tuned to learn about the latest trends in augmented and virtual reality, and the impactful use cases that benefit the most from this technology.
But before we dive into John's fascinating journey, we take a moment to celebrate Mario Molina's impressive role in healing the ozone layer in our Trailblazers in STEM segment!
By the way, have you signed up for SHPE National Convention alerts yet? Tahimy Landestoy, a recent University of Houston graduate, credits the convention as her secret to landing her dream job. You won't want to miss her story!
Tune in next week for another episode of our Mini Series, Familia Voices, where we sit down with Lesly Rojas and Maria Silva Gallardo, two amigas studying computer science and electrical engineering at Oregon State University.
