Fiona is one of the most amazing people I have met.
Fiona is absolutely adorable.
As soon as you start talking to her it's impossible not to love her.
She's a dream client.
This course is essentially a very compressed and very early version of trying to mimic the challenges that students will face in their engineering career.
So we're trying to give them all of the design skills and the
prototyping skills and the brainstorming skills that they need to tackle really complicated problems
Such as the one that we have with our client
And so the idea of working for a client rather than working for yourself is a really important thing. To have that level of engagement
With a client and someone who's willing to let us come to her house and measure all of her stuff and 3D scan her
That's really really great and to have that level of involvement. And you know theoretical learning is amazing and everything
But there's nothing like holding a physical thing that you made with your own hands and your own insight and your own knowledge
That's that's a really profound experience for them
And I think it's it's gonna a really great way for them to start their engineering career here at Mac.
Because she's just like another person that you want to be friends with instantly and that's why I feel like it's very motivating because when you do a project
Instead of doing it for someone you're doing it for Fiona
When our product isn't user friendly its Fiona friendly we wanted to actually tailor our
product to her because in the end we wanted to make her happy
This wasn't just about getting a job done
This was about actually changing potentially changing someone's life and making someone really happy which I really hope we do
Thank you so much for helping me
and supporting me
and having fun with me while doing this.
Having this idea that we can create things accessibly for individuals
And if one person, one engineer walks away and gets into an accessible design area then
the impact of this project, the Impact Project, is huge
