About Me¶
Hello! I am Jenna Chebaro, a 16 year old sophomore (class of ‘27) at Charlotte Latin. I took the EDM1 (Engineering and Design Methods) class first semester of freshman year and Intro to Electrical Engineering first semester this year, 2024-25. I am considering a career in engineering and plan to take the biomedical engineering course during my senior year.
My other hobbies include creative writing, music, and running. I am a leader of the school’s creative writing club and a lead layout editor on our school’s literary magazine. In 2024, I also listened to Spotify for over 73,000 minutes.
I joined Fab Academy in order to become more involved in engineering. I will use this year to focus on the commitments that could define the rest of high school, if not college. Also, Fab Academy will further encourage me to develop my study habits and cooperate during group assignments.
Website Details¶
Here is my git repo for reference. It includes my website and design files, sorted by the week in which I created them.
My documentation style mainly involves an explanation of trial and error. I introduce the weekly assignment and explain my prior knowledge, if any, to help me complete it. I then write a projected timeline. Throughout the course of the week, I fill out the actual timeline to evaluate my progress and make necessary changes. I then document the process for my individual and group assignment with subheaders for each part of the assigment. My specific steps are in nested lists with pictures below. I write a brief reflection at the end, link the files, and document the lessons I learned. I document with the intention of helping future Fab Academy participants as well as myself.
Previous Work¶
During freshman year, me and a partner from Providence Day won the PD Hackathon, an entreprenuial competition involving engineering. We expanded upon the idea a bit and prototyped throughout the year. This year, for my final project in Electrical Engineering, I built a self-balancing Arduino robot.
