MCA Canada Scholarship Highlight: Madison Button

 2021 Dan Kirkpatrick Scholarship Recipient

I'm a second-year Electrical Engineering student at Memorial University of Newfoundland and I'm currently completing my second work term at eSonar, a marine technology company. I hope to one day work in high-tech or the renewable energy industry.

I'm also very passionate about promoting diversity and equitable opportunities in STEM fields, which has led me to volunteer with the Robogals MUN Chapter. In this role, i create and facilitate STEM-related workshops for K-12 students, which has proven to be a very rewarding experience. Being able to encourage and inspire the next generation to pursue their goals is something I hope to continue to do throughout my education and career.
