McKenna mostly grew up in Northern Michigan. She graduated from Quincy House in 2019 with a degree in bioengineering. While at Harvard, she was involved with Engineers Without Borders, the Catholic Student Association and Model United Nations. In her free time, she loved to go for long runs, cook treats in her DeWolf Kitchen and have game nights. Her one regret is not having more time to do Quincy IMs, so she is hoping to remedy that as an Elf! For the past two years, she has been working at Engineers Without Borders, first through Harvard’s Richardson Publix Service Fellowship and later as the Executive Project Lead. Her plans for the upcoming year include hiking/camping a lot in New Hampshire and Vermont, running with friends, and cooking amazing food for all of the Quincy Penguins!
