IEEE Eta Kappa Nu - IEEE National Honor Society

IEEE-Eta Kappa Nu (IEEE-HKN), the honor society of IEEE, promotes excellence in the profession and in education with ideals of Scholarship, Character and Attitude.It was founded on 28 October 1904 for students of electrical engineering. Today, IEEE-HKN promotes professional accomplishment, service, and development for students and professionals in electrical engineering, computer engineering, and other IEEE fields of interest.

National Association of LSAMP Alumni (NALA)

NALA's Vision is to ensure that underrepresented minority students in STEM are prepared to assume leadership roles and professional opportunities. We will foster the career development and transition of our LSAMP students through conferences, workshops, and mentorship. We will do this by developing a network of LSAMP Alumni to shine a brighter future for our current undergraduate students.

Walter Scott Junior Leadership Council

This was a leadership position for high achieving STEM students admitted to the Walter Scott Jr. Scholarship program. We helped revamp the mentorship aspect of the program to include upperclassmen mentoring lowerclassmen. We redesigned the admission process to be more holistic rather than focus on only set academic acieivents. Harvard design thinking methods were used to solve problems.

Prairie STEM Teaching Assistant

Daniel has volunteered for the after school elementary STEM education program, Prairie STEM. In this program, young students are exposed to a variety of engineering projects. They had experience using CAD software to design architecture, mechanics, and circuits. Daniel volunteered as a teaching assistant for these lessons.

Music

Daniel is also an active jazz pianist, music producer, and composer. He has performed for music groups spanning a wide variety of genres and has received both jazz and classical training.
