Born on November 8, 2002, in Rochester, New York, Ryan Gustin is an aspiring civil engineer whose dedication to engineering excellence and community service has defined his young career. Raised in Penfield, NY, his journey into engineering began in his elementary years at Plank Road North Elementary, where his participation in Lego robotics sparked a profound interest in the field.
Ryan's passion for engineering deepened as he progressed to McQuaid Jesuit High School in Rochester. He played a pivotal role in the school's robotics team, contributing to designing and constructing a robot that could successfully climb, showcasing his problem-solving skills and creativity. This project earned the team an "Excellence in Engineering" award, recognizing their innovative approach and technical prowess. During his time at McQuaid, he also developed significant expertise in CNC milling and CAD software, skills that allowed him to translate digital designs into functional mechanical components precisely.
Ryan's commitment extended beyond the robotics lab. He was actively involved in community service, volunteering at the House of Mercy Homeless Shelter and Maplewood Nursing Home. These experiences enriched his understanding of engineers' impact on improving community welfare and underscored the importance of empathy and social responsibility in his professional life.
Now a student at Penn State, Ryan is majoring in Civil Engineering and continues demonstrating leadership and commitment to his field. He is an active member of the American Society of Civil Engineers. He participates in the Penn State Formula Racing team, applying his engineering skills to real-world problems. His involvement in these organizations enhances his educational experience and prepares him for the professional challenges ahead.
In the summer of 2023, Ryan interned at DDS Companies in Rochester, NY, working on various infrastructure projects. This role involved using AutoCAD to design and implement solutions for complex engineering challenges, providing him with invaluable hands-on experience that complemented his academic studies.
Travel has also played a crucial role in shaping Ryan’s educational and personal growth. His trips to Italy and major U.S. cities have exposed him to different architectural styles and urban planning concepts, broadening his perspective on the role of civil engineering in cultural and environmental contexts.
Looking forward, Ryan Gustin, New York, is eager to complete his degree in May 2025 and begin his professional career. He aims to work on innovative infrastructure projects in urban centers like Miami or New York, where he can apply his skills to enhance urban living environments through sustainable and efficient design.
Ryan’s trajectory from a curious student experimenting with Lego robotics to a promising young engineer is a testament to his hard work, ingenuity, and dedication to serving his community. As he prepares to enter the professional world, his combination of technical skills, practical experience, and a deep commitment to social responsibility positions him as a transformative force in civil engineering.
