Aly Blair

I knew I wanted to major in fire protection engineering ever since I attended the summer program, Exploring Engineering, through the Women in Engineering Program after my sophomore year in high school. As a student here at Maryland, I have stayed involved in this program as a mentor for freshman women engineers as well as a facilitator for some Girl Scout Engineering Saturday Programs. I am also involved in the Society of Fire Protection Engineers.

Having played sports all my life as well as being a huge sports fan, you can be sure to catch me at many home football, basketball, soccer, and lacrosse games. I also play on the Maryland Women's Club Lacrosse Team and have become involved in intramural flag football the past two years.
