President
Jenna Machacek
Hi there! When I’m not buried under homework, I enjoy hanging out with friends, taking my dog June on walks, and playing guitar. After graduation, my goal is to work in the defense industry with a focus on hypersonic development-because who wouldn’t want to be a rocket scientist? What I love most about Pi Tau Sigma is the sense of community we’ve built. It’s a group of equally driven individuals who support one another, not only in academics but also through camaraderie that makes this honor society special.

Being surrounded by motivated, like-minded peers has made my experience in engineering far more meaningful and rewarding.
