About this listen

Hey Hokies! It's a double-trouble episode with an additional Megan: Megan Bennett (aka Megan B.), an advanced electrical engineer (II) at Platform Aerospace. Megan B. works on the world record-breaking Vanilla Unmanned aircraft and has her BS in Electrical Engineering with a focus on controls, robotics and autonomy from Virginia Tech. She also received the Electrical & Computer Engineering Outstanding Leadership Award (oOOoo)!

In this episode, our intrepid hosts, Megan and Niki, talk un-crewed aircraft (which isn't something they ever thought they would do); getting a job after graduating literally during the height of #pandemic; and spend most of the episode being in awe of how cool Megan B. is. Our favorite words of wisdom from Megan B.? "There is a place for you."

Connect with Megan B. via email at mib@vt.edu. Don't forget to mention you heard her on the podcast!
