Kaelan has been on the team since her sophomore year in
2009. She is now a senior and is also the Team Captain. Kaelan was on the race
team last year when the car competed at Texas Motor Speedway. Currently she and
the other Aurora team members are trying to improve the car’s performance by
20% before the race this summer.
When she has free time, she enjoys fishing, shooting guns,
and hanging out with friends. Kaelan chose to pursue engineering in high school
because she enjoys working with her hands. She joined the solar car team
because it interested her more than any of the other competition teams.
Kaelan plans to attend the University of Texas at Austin in
the fall. She wants to double major in mechanical engineering and life sciences
because she aspires to be a veterinarian. After UT she hopes to be accepted to
the vet school at Texas A&M University.
