Hayden Russo

My name is Hayden Russo and I am finishing my junior year as a mechanical engineering student at Weber State University. I am on the presidential scholarship, covering my full tuition, and I have maintained a 4.0 GPA throughout school. I'll be living in Cayce, SC this summer and hope to gain some work experience while in the area.
