Senior🎓
Top SchoolAmethyst O'Connell is an Electrical Designer with nine years of hands-on experience bridging electrical engineering, sustainability, and applied hardware design. A University of Minnesota graduate with a sustainability minor, she brings practical expertise in solar, electrification, EV systems, and PCB/manufacturing processes from roles ranging from rail grinder and automation internships to leading the UMN Solar Vehicle Project. At Michaud Cooley Erickson she applies climate-focused design thinking informed by GIS-based power systems instruction and community-centered feasibility work, including a solar feasibility study for a culturally significant food truck.
