Description

Leber's hereditary optic neuropathy ain't the only thing the recipient of the Student of the Year award from the Governor's Committee on Employment of People with Disabilities plans to conquer. He's the president of the Auburn chapter of the National Society of Black Engineers. He's had cybersecurity internships galore. And for the past year, he's served as a research and development engineer at the McCrary Institute for Cyber and Critical Infrastructure Security. Yes, despite losing much of his sight, this senior in computer science and software engineering says he can now "see the larger picture, one that shows I can do anything I put my mind to.” 

Ladies and gentlemen, Aidan Anderson.
