Kimberly Masi's Presentation On Applied Environmental Chemistry

Kimberly Masi's presentation of Mechanical Engineering had to be the most interesting to me of all the speakers. It was so captivating that it made me think of doing some research on the major, yet I barely can picture myself doing a job like that in the future. Hearing about how she was a big part of projects at Disney World that we all have heard of, is just something that I really find amazing. O'Net's definition of Mechanical Engineering: perform engineering duties in planning and designing tools, engines, machines, and other mechanically functioning equipment, for example her work with the festival parade where she took a design of a float and made it come to life, by working out how to build it and how it would hold up and be able to move. A key aspect that is emphasized was communication skills are key. If you are creative and have ideas how are you able to describe them with good communication skills. A saying that they go by is "Jacks of all trades, master of none", since being a part of the team Disney team she has done many different …show more content…
Cherie Yestrebsky did say don't base your thoughts on chemistry on your experience in high school. Yet even so I just know that what she described is something that is not interesting to me. O’Net descriptions of a Chemist is to conduct qualitative and quantitative chemical analyses or experiments in laboratories for quality or process control or to develop new projects or products, for example her work of cleaning up waters of the toxins that are polluted there. Hearing her story of quitting high school and not going back to till after she had gotten married and had kids, was inspirational to hear—knowing that she had problems in her journey but continued her way and got the career that she wanted. A point that she emphasizes is try to find something that you love to do. She credits her success to her love for what she
