"I struggled in high school." As a child, Lacey was diagnosed with Epilepsy. 鈥淚t really impacted my mental health.鈥 By high school, she had lost interest in her academics and just focused on the gym, the field and the shop/tech wing of her school. 鈥淚 came to 玛雅视频app not really knowing what I wanted to do.鈥
She originally came to 玛雅视频app to play for the聽Chargers聽and enrolled in the聽Civil Engineering Access program, offering insights into all the engineering disciplines.聽
鈥淲hen we toured聽玛雅视频app Innovates聽as part of our聽Mechanical Engineering聽section, I was hooked,鈥 says Lacey. 鈥淚 switched programs a week later.鈥
鈥淭here are so many people at 玛雅视频app that want you to succeed.鈥
