Jace Hovey


I am in my 4th year at the University of Central Florida studying mechanical engineering. I grew up in Orlando, FL and graduated from Apopka High School. My favorite Professor at UCF is Dr. Zaurin. He challenged me to work hard and excel in school.

I joined the STEM ambassador program to invest in the community. I want to support students in finding their passion. I believe cultivating an interest in STEM is a great way to help students achieve success.

A little bit about me, I am an ISTJ with a passion for learning. In high school I took an interest in design and manufacturing and explored this interest by working as an intern for a local manufacturing company. Several years and internships later, I am now perusing the skills to enable me to use machine learning and statistics to automate manufacturing processes. In my free time, I attend celebration church in downtown Orlando and love to be outdoors.
