Hi! My name is Sherrette Yeates. I an Electrical Engineering major with a minor in Business Administration. I was born and raised in the beautiful islands of Trinidad and Tobago. I am a Senior RA (Resident Assistant) and I enjoy being a resource for residents. In May 2011, I began serving as the President of the Black Engineering Student Society (BESS) - Northeastern’s chapter of the National Society of Black Engineers (NSBE). On May 4th 2012, I will graduate from Northeastern University!

Thank you bloggers for all who’ve followed me for the past year! It’s been quite a pleasure writing these posts and sharing my Northeastern experiences with you. Good luck on all your future endeavors! And, in case you’re wondering where I’m going next - I’ll be a Project Engineer for Whirlpool Corporation with assignments across that globe.</p>http://nuadmissions-coe.tumblr.com/post/22664930836http://nuadmissions-coe.tumblr.com/post/22664930836Tue, 08 May 2012 15:24:42 -0400Northeasternnu2012graduation<p>Read this article about an NU who will do what no other student has done..travel to outer space!!</p> <p><a href="http://www.northeastern.edu/news/2012/04/justin-dowd/" target="_blank"><a href="http://www.northeastern.edu/news/2012/04/justin-dowd/" target="_blank">http://www.northeastern.edu/news/2012/04/justin-dowd/</a></a></p>http://nuadmissions-coe.tumblr.com/post/21852926376http://nuadmissions-coe.tumblr.com/post/21852926376Thu, 26 Apr 2012 12:30:00 -0400NortheasternSpaceInternational Metro Space Competition<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m2v1h5UsQV1qltpiro1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Thank you ECE!!</p> <p>Such a beautiful cake courtesy the Electrical and Computer Engineering Department and the ECE Senior reception.
