DOSSIER: Myra Blanco, Ph.D
Virginia Tech Transportation Institute
MEMBER NEWS
was always there for us and
pushed us to reach our full
potential. Also, Alba Colon. Now
Director of Competition Systems
with Hendrick Motorsports, she
came to visit Dr. Serrano in the
'90s. She had graduated from
UPR Engineering. It was so
amazing to meet another person
that was similar to me (female,
Puerto Rican, engineer). Later in
my career, another great SAE
inspiration was Debbie Freund.
She was a founding member of
COMVEC Executive Council and
led many trucking safety
initiatives at the Federal Motor
Carrier Safety Administration.
What advice would you like to
offer SAE Members?
Become as involved as you can. I
have benefited greatly from
participating in various SAE
committees and activities, and I
have met many wonderful
colleagues and friends by doing
so. Take advantage of the many
ways that SAE provides you to
contribute professionally and to
assist others! Start early on in
your career, even as a student.
For students, the knowledge and
skills obtained by participation in
SAE Collegiate Design Series
competitions will last a lifetime.
