My name is Catherine Powell, and my dream is to be able to create experiences and attractions that engage and excite people of all ages. I will be graduating from the University at Buffalo in May 2024 with a degree in Mechanical Engineering. I am also minoring in Theatre with a concentration in Design and Technology, and I’m also graduating in 2024 with a certificate in Themed Entertainment Design from Purdue University.

I have significant hands-on experience not only in mechanical engineering and design, but also with visual design, blue sky concept work, and theatrical construction. Above all, I’m passionate about telling stories through live experiences and themed environments.
