Kaitlyn Webber

Kaitlyn graduated from the University of Maine with a B.S. in Biomedical Engineering. She first became interested in engineering through the use and design of prosthetics and the application and technology of medical devices. A large factor in her decision to pursue this career path was the fact that she had the chance to touch the lives of people in need.

For the summer of 2021, Kaitlyn worked at Abbott Laboratories as an intern within the engineering department. This site focused on the production of BinaxNOW COVID-Antigen Self-Tests. She also spent two years working at the Advanced Structures and Composites Center as a Student Research Assistant working within the lab building military equipment and gaining experience with FDM 3D printers.
