JASMINE BRIDGES - MS’10 MECHANICAL ENGINEERING
Jasmine Bridges - MS’10 Mechanical Engineering
Bridges, of Tacoma, Wash., recently graduated with a Masters degree in Mechanical Engineering. She was inspired to become an astronaut by Hollywood and by one of the worst disasters in the history of the U.S. space program. "At six years old, despite the unfortunate 1986 Challenger explosion, I became fascinated with space and astronomy,” says Bridges, MS’10 Mechanical Engineering.
