Hey there! I’m Victoria Png, and I am Duke SWE’s Section President and the Region D (Southeastern US) Collegiate Senator for FY15! I’m a senior majoring in Mechanical Engineering and doing the Markets and Management Certificate, originally from Northvale, NJ (a tiny little suburb about 20 minutes north of NYC). I’ve had a number of positions with both our collegiate section and the society since my freshman year (Freshman Delegate, Region D SWEFL, Recruitment and Public Relations Officer, Vice President, Region D RCCE…) so you could say SWE has been a huge part of my college career. I’m really excited to be president this year and I can’t wait to show you what our section has planned this year!

Aside from SWE, I am also a Resident Assistant in Keohane Quad, External Communications Chair for Duke’s American Society of Mechanical Engineers, and an alpine competitor for Duke’s Club Ski & Board Team. Not sure where I’m going to end up after graduation yet (so employers, if you’re hiring…) but I have had a number of internships in various departments within consumer products (Global Stewardship at the Clorox Company/Burt’s Bees, Manufacturing at Procter & Gamble, Sensory at Robertet Group and R&D at Reckitt Benckiser). Please feel free to reach out to me if you have any questions about SWE, my experience in Pratt/at Duke, etc!
