Member Testimonials
Karrington Riley '26
For me NSBE has been the one club to impact me professionally, academically, and socially. I’m grateful that I found this club so early on because I have met so many great people that have become my friends or have helped me grow into the person that I am today. Thanks to NSBE, I was able to find two summer internships at their conferences. I have also serve my community positively by serving on the e-board for a year as TORCH chair and I’m now going into my second year serving as Treasurer. I have learned the importance of giving back to the community you live in and staying on top of things and organized in both of them. So, to this day, I am always grateful for NSBE and all the friends and opportunities that have come from it!

NSBE has been instrumental in shaping both my technical skills and my leadership journey. From hands-on workshops to connecting with Black engineers in the hardware space, NSBE has shown me that there’s a place—and a need—for voices like mine in the future of innovation.

Attending my first NSBE conference connected me with inspiring professionals and opportunities that have already begun shaping my future.

NSBE had made my transition into college very smooth and enjoyable. It has allowed me to meet so many like minded people who truly care for me. It has also opened a plethora of doors for all of us to kickstart our careers. I believe NSBE is an essential resource for all black students and would recommend to it everyone!

NSBE is a community that has given me further insight on the importance of diversity and representation in the workforce, and has consistently served as an example of how such things ultimately enrich collectives, even those otherwise considered homogenous.
