Hello, I’m Gigi Yeung, a junior majoring in Engineering Sciences-Mechanical, and I’m from Macao. Growing up, I loved Lego and building wooden models, and I was also on the robotics team in high school. I enjoy doing CAD and design, which led me to want to pursue a degree in engineering. Outside of the classroom, I love photography and traveling, and I’m also a squash player. I’m on the squash team at Yale, and this past year, I had the opportunity to represent Macao in the Hangzhou Asian Games. Squash was a significant part of my life growing up, but I’m also excited to see where engineering takes me.

Design Projects
