#ginning Podcast

Meet biosystems engineering sophomore Bella Nonales, a dean's list dynamo with a chance of making history as the drummiest major in the history of the Auburn University Marching Band. Not bad for someone who just celebrated her 5th birthday. 

The man, the myth, the unincorporated legend. Ladies and gentlemen — senior mechanical engineering lecturer, undergraduate program officer, student advisor and director of the Design and Manufacturing Lab, Jordan Roberts. 

On the latest episode of the award-winning #GINNing Podcast, meet biosystems engineering sophomore Maddie Spoor, an Auburn Engineering double legacy who's getting the earliest jump possible on undergraduate research in order to blaze her own trail. 

Cassandra Porter. Cassie Porter. Cass Porter. She goes by many names. And she has even more pursuits. She's a former professional ballerina. A current fossil hunter. And a day-jobbing assistant professor of chemical engineering. Curious? Well then join us as we pass through the walls of mystery surrounding this LinkedIn-less membrane maestro. 

What to expect on the 251st episode of the best podcast in all of higher education? How about the origin story of geotechnical juggernaut Brian Anderson, a full-scale infrastructure inspiration who's girding the loins of this nation's foundations. 

When it comes to hacking, Emily Kimbrell ain't slacking. Listen to this former aspiring cinematographer turned white hat wunderkind (and undergraduate software engineering research fellow) discuss how Auburn is routing her career — and the largest hackathon in Alabama.

From polymers to public administration, Olivia Cook is inspiring the nation. Listen to the 2014 polymer and fiber engineering graduate (with graduate degrees from Auburn in public policy and public administration) discuss how she's using lessons learned at Auburn to help change the world on the 250th episode of the best podcast in all of higher education. 

From the decathlon to biomechanics startups, mechanical engineering graduate student and track and field standout David Edmondson is clearing the bar — and then some. 

Parabolic telescopes... diamond-turning lathes...  few folks have taken advantage of Auburn Engineering's next-level makerspace like aerospace engineering senior Cyrus Lloyd. 

Girls go to college to get more knowledge. And, in Kanak Parmar's case, to get us to Jupiter a little less stupider. (You're welcome, Deep Space Network.)

When it comes to subjects like heat transfer, let's just say computer science and software engineering freshman Cameron Tilly's 90+ mile per hour fastball already has him a little ahead of the game. Learn why the top pitching prospect chose Auburn Engineering over Major League Baseball — for now — on the latest episode of the best podcast in higher education. 

Associate professor and associate chair in the Department of Computer Science and Software Engineering. Director of Computer Science and Software Engineering Undergraduate Programs. Director of Global Programs, Samuel Ginn College of Engineering. How does Dean Hendrix do it? Find out on the latest episode of the best podcast in all of higher education. 

Mechanical engineer. Soccer referee. eBay Powerseller. Graduate research assistant Christian Fauer does it all. 

Ali Khosravi, an assistant professor in the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering, plans to dive deep into morphing skins on robotic systems designed to burrow deep for measuring soil structures. (In other words, robot worms.)

Got a friction addiction? Enjoy discussing discontinued syrup brands? Than get your ears on for the latest episode of the award-winning #GINNing Podcast featuring chief of the Auburn tribe of student tribologists, mechanical engineering graduate research assistant Jack Janik. 

Auburn Engineering is helping animatronics aficionado Savanna Anderson fulfill her Disney dreams. Thank you, Asa Kalama.

After cracking his parents' password as a boy in Jordan, Farah Kandah, associate professor in computer science and software engineering, thankfully decided to use his knack for hacks as a force for good. These days, that's taking the form of next-level quantum computing education and mentoring the Auburn Ethical Hacking Club.

A chemical engineering honors student with an appetite for undergraduate research? You can bet your bottom dollar you'll be hearing about Camylle Lollar.  

She marched her way to the biosystems boss level and now this second-generation Auburn Engineer is reaping the rewards. Graduation marshal Natalie Hodge? That's an honor you can't dislodge.Listen to the graduating senior discuss her Auburn experience the latest episode of the award-winning #GINNing Podcast.

At next year's Graduate Engineering Research Showcase, Ryan Pollard's professional passion might come in handy in more ways than one. Because if this first-year mechanical engineering student has to carry any more awards, he may need some rehabilitation robotics and assistive devices of his own.
