About
Hello! I'm Mio Crilley, a current junior (graduating in May 2028) studying Mechanical Engineering with a concentration in energy. I've had internships in the automotive and utility industries, and will be working with Consumers Energy throughout this school year. After graduation, I plan to pursue a career in the renewable energy sector, with the possibility of relocating to California. Outside of class, I love to read, travel, cook, and go to live concerts. I also play the guitar and drums, and I've joined some local bands on campus.
When I first came to our university as a freshman, I was undeclared in LSA and unsure of what I wanted to major in. Joining UROP definitely played an important role in helping me find my interests in engineering. Through the program, I worked on a project that was involved in materials science, fabrication and testing, and even had ties to my culture as a Japanese American. My goal as a peer facilitator is to make sure students feel supported as they explore their interests, and hopefully have as positive of an experience as I did!
