Through Rowdy Corps, Alinna Garcia, a UT San Antonio first-generation Honors College student and finance major, gained hands-on experience at the San Antonio Museum of Science and Technology (SAMSAT). There, she coordinated programs, led tours and learned to handle unexpected challenges.
Her work at SAMSAT also introduced her to audiovisual technology. Alinna followed her curiosity into a part-time finance position with an audiovisual company and, eventually, a full-time engineering role. Today, she installs audiovisual systems across the state of Texas. One of her projects took her to the State Capitol in Austin, where she spent a year supporting audiovisual work for the Texas House of Representatives.
