Abbas Mehdi
Abbas is fourth year Biological Sciences Major with a Math Minor. And he would like you all to know that he’s graduating in a month, and we would like you all to know that he has a job lined up because we are very proud. He’s a first year iGEMer who loves chess.
Quote: Doesn't actually have a quote, because he is a man of many words.
Brittany Sauter
Brittany (Britt) is a fourth year with a specialization in Microbiology and is working to get her Certificate in Sustainability. She's a first year iGEMer who loves to travel (cuz she’s not like other girls).
Quote: Honestly she could write a book with all her quotes but the most iconic is: "I'm not an alcoholic"
Jesus Jair Hurtado
Jesus is a third year Chemical Engineering student (and human ray of sunshine). He’s a first year iGEMer who loves to draw.
