BIO

I am Patrick Jones, and I am a recent graduate of the University of Tennessee Knoxville. I received my Bachelor’s in Aerospace Engineering with a minor in Honors Leadership Studies. My primary involvements at Tennessee included: Beta Upsilon Chi, the Honors Leadership Program, and the American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics. Within Beta Upsilon Chi specifically, I served as Community Service Coordinator, House Manager, All Campus Events Coordinator, and most notably, Treasurer. Using my experience and degree, I am currently employed as an Aerospace Engineer at the Department of the Air Force. As a part of the Air Force’s PAQ program, I am also pursuing a Masters in Systems Engineering at Florida State University.

My leadership vision is to propel the engineering industry forward through the optimization of current products and the creation of new ones in order to best serve clientele. To fulfill this leadership vision, my personal mission is to become an engineer and work my way up to one day become a leader of leaders within an engineering firm.
