Nina Parsons, engineer

It took just one day at a race track for Nina Parsons to know that she wanted to be an engineer.

At Oxford Brookes University she built a Formula Student racing car with her team, where the small details make the difference between winning and losing. When her Born to Engineer film was made, she was heading for a placement with the Williams Formula 1 team.

“I think engineering is about pushing boundaries and analysing things very critically and questioning, continuously questioning everything.”
