👋 Hi, I’m Reyna Simone Gowie!
I’m an Industrial Engineering major, a multi-passionate creative, and a dedicated advocate for well-being and community. Currently, I’m balancing roles as a Resident Assistant, Notion Campus Leader, Penn State student government representative, and more. Through my projects and pursuits, I aim to blend technology, empathy, and practical design to create solutions that make life simpler and more connected.
💡 Driven by Curiosity
Whether it's diving deep into the intricacies of menstrual health for a mobile app project or exploring the intersections of mental health and identity, I thrive on uncovering the “why” behind human experiences. My projects reflect my passion for research, creative problem-solving, and making complex topics accessible to everyone.
🌍 More Than Just Work
When I'm not studying or managing a project, you’ll likely find me learning new languages on Duolingo (currently on a roll with Spanish and French!) or exploring new ideas around mental health advocacy and the “human side” of tech. I’m also a firm believer in embracing all aspects of ourselves, which inspired me to start speaking about the balance between ambition and self-compassion.
Thanks for stopping by – I hope my journey inspires you, too. Let's connect, collaborate, and make a difference!
Empathy-Driven Innovation
I believe the best solutions come from truly understanding people. Whether it's designing user-friendly technology or leading a team, empathy guides my approach. I strive to see things from multiple perspectives to create work that’s meaningful and impactful.
Integrity in Action
For me, integrity means authenticity and a commitment to personal growth. I value honesty with myself and others, always striving to learn from both successes and challenges. Integrity guides my journey as I seek to improve, adapt, and approach my work with a clear sense of purpose.
Continuous Growth
Learning is at the heart of everything I do. Whether through independent research projects, formal education, or feedback from others, I’m constantly seeking to expand my knowledge and skills. I’m dedicated to growing not just professionally but personally, becoming more adaptable and resilient along the way.
Collaborative Spirit
Great work is rarely done alone. I thrive in collaborative environments where diverse ideas can come together to create something extraordinary. Building authentic, supportive relationships is essential to my work, and I love connecting with others who share this value.
Practical Creativity
Innovation requires a balance between imagination and pragmatism. I’m passionate about finding creative solutions to real-world challenges, blending analytical skills with a touch of artistry to make ideas both functional and engaging.
