Bessie Ekworomadu

Hi! My name is Bessie Ekworomadu, and I am a chemistry and chemical engineering major in the Dual Degree Engineering Program at Spelman College.  My Family is Nigerian and Tanzanian, but I grew up in Little Rock, Arkansas.  My hobbies and interests are hiking, traveling, baking, and being around nature, greatly contributing to my passion for sustainability.  This passion is shown through my past internships with energy and consumer goods, where I was blessed to have opportunities.  I’m excited to bring the knowledge I have stored to help others and meet new Yellow Jackets to help them navigate their career goals.


Maria Lindsey

Hi! I’m Maria Lindsey, a 4th year biomedical engineering major on the Pre-Health track here at Georgia Tech. I’m currently working in Dr. Lewis Wheaton’s Cognitive Motor Control lab, where we aim to better understand neurophysiology and neurorehabilitation in upper extremity motor impairments. I’ve also conducted summer research in point-of-care chronic kidney disease testing at Cornell University, and developed viability assays for detecting nanotoxicity in cancerous lung epithelial cells at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). I’m from Baltimore, Maryland, and my hobbies include baking, golfing, and going on runs. I look forward to bringing new undergraduate research opportunities to the OMED community as a Career Champion for the Career Pathways and Exploration (CPE) Program!
