Dora Strelkova is an Electrical Engineering undergrad with a minor in Mathematics, currently pursuing a minor in Computer Science at the University of Windsor. To date, Dora works as an Additive Manufacturing Lab Technician at Valiant TMS and engages in research on robotic grippers. Her research focuses on integrating compliant mechanisms and origami in robotics via 3D printing (3DP). As a FIRST Robotics Alum, Dora aims to destigmatize STEM for young girls and women who look to be involved in the world of science and tech but don’t know where to start. Her involvement in the Windsor branch of IEEE’s Circuits and Systems Society (CAS) has allowed her to give back to the student community through the delivery of technical events on PCB design and fabrication, 3D modeling, and the design for additive manufacturing. Dora is thankful for all her mentors who have provided guidance and opportunities throughout the years, allowing her to expand her toolbox of skills and become a stronger future engineer.
