Meet Nick Keller, Our Engineering Summer Intern! 👋 We’re thrilled to introduce Nicholas Keller, who’s going to be a Junior in Mechanical Engineering at Purdue University. During his time at the BIC, Nick has explored the fascinating world of battery development and testing, a field he says he might not have discovered without this opportunity. He’s particularly enjoyed learning about the factors affecting battery performance, designing and 3D printing a coin cell battery holder, and deepening his understanding of Python. In his free time, Nick enjoys reading, hanging out with friends, playing tennis, and working on personal projects. With the new skills he’s gained at BIC, he’s looking forward to tackling a project involving CAN messages in his car. Let’s give a big thanks to Nick for his contributions and enthusiasm this summer!
