Jade Cutter is an electrical engineering student at Tacoma Community College with a follow-on scholarship to the University of Washington. She has been our intern for the last 8 weeks. Jade’s passion for atomic physics and space flight began at a young age, spurred by Brian Greene and her grandfather’s innovative work as a manager for Boeing. As a child, she sat on the kitchen counter multiplying fractions to bake half-recipes with her grandfather, and spent evenings with her mother in secondhand bookshops reading voraciously. Growing up, she was an avid Girl Scout and loved the outdoors.

At twenty-four, Jade returned to college with renewed focus. She is pursuing a Bachelor of both Electrical Engineering and Industrial Systems Engineering, with a concentration in photonics. She has been a member of Phi Theta Kappa for two years and was elected the Public Affairs officer of TCC’s Engineering Club. She oversees major club projects and acts as a liaison between the club and her community. Jade also volunteers for local kids’ science fairs and supervised a regional science team competition.

Jade managed the steep learning curve in material science, building upon the SolidWorks experience she had in school.  She assisted in developing computer models for several projects as well as working on site with our principal engineer, Bart Kemper, P.E.  She also took the time to get involved with the local community, such as the picture of her “plogging”, or “picking up trash while jogging”, in the MidCity area.  Jade proved herself as a team player and a strong engineer candidate.  We wish her success in all of her future endeavors.
