MAGGIE DRIGGS

Welcome to my portfolio, I’m Maggie and I’m studying Mechanical Engineering at Boston University

But, don’t be confused, I’m still an artist. I just got a cool toolkit now.

About Me

I paint portraits of people whose stories have affected me. Victims of police brutality and racism, female figures who inspire me and give me hope. Children across the world who have gone through horrors and are still smiling. Painting someone has been my way of lifting those people up and getting a glimpse into their lives.
I will never stop painting, but I knew I could go a step further in my creations.
This is where engineering has come in. I’ve been so enthused and inspired by the potential of what I can do with all this new knowledge. BU emphasizes the importance of being a societal engineer, and it has been exciting for me is to not only learn about a community, but to learn about them in a framework to create something to help them. Engineering gives me a way to give back to world a bit, in a unique, beautiful, artistic, Maggie way. Just like in my painting above, named “Support”, I believe we can create a world where we all bring our hands, our gifts, our lights together to support each other. And engineering is my way of doing that. I can one day help create water filters for impoverished communities, I can help keep global warming at bay with solar energy, I can help pave a path for other girls who are also inspired by technology.
Coolest. Toolkit. Ever.
