    The wife and I are leaving tomorrow morning for Asheville, NC to scope out rental properties and meet with my future bosses at BorgWarner Turbo Systems. I landed a 7 month paid internship with them working as a light-duty design engineer. The design engineer manager rides a Uly and posts on Badweb. He has followed my turbo project and contacted me last December to see how soon I graduate from UF. We discussed my time-frame and they offered me the internship.

    I look forward to exploring the Asheville area. I love beer and the supply is plentiful and diverse there! We are staying at Aloft, a newer hotel right in the middle of downtown and will spend the weekend cruising the town. We will check out on Monday and meet the DE manager, the two supervisors, and a new design engineer hire for a casual lunch then I'll get a tour of the BorgWarner Turbo Systems facility.

    I am really excited for the internship experience. It will be my first professional engineering experience and I hope I will want to return for a permanent position.

    Thanks, Sandro! I wish I could make it to the Buell meet but my finals are that next week. I'm going to be studying then. I'll see if I can convince my profs to let me out early:D

    Many congrats Eric! I got a BS engineering degree and it was a HUGE struggle for me. It's very impressive what you have and continue to accomplish! I'm pretty sure most of us are in awe of your talents. I'm sure you will do very well there, and it's much deserved.
