Hi there! I'm Oletha Collins, a mechanical engineering student at the University of Minnesota-Twin Cities. I love turning ideas into tangible solutions through 3D modeling, digital fabrication, and hands-on engineering projects. I enjoy collaborating with cross-functional teams to design, test, and optimize systems. From my internships and community roles, I’ve built strong communication, organization, and problem-solving skills. I’ve worked with the Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis, City of Minneapolis, Walmart, and library youth advisory committees, where I led data transfer projects, supported secure operations, and helped mentor peers. I’m excited to apply my engineering mindset to new challenges and continue learning.…Hi there! I'm Oletha Collins, a mechanical engineering student at the University of Minnesota-Twin Cities.
