Katerina Bastounis

Katerina Bastounis. What started as a love of science from her fourth-grade Olympiad team, the discovery that chemistry was her favorite class in junior high, to realization a year ago that chemical engineering was her future. “Not only will I be able to do something I enjoy, but being a chemical engineer allows me to better the well-being of living things, as it affects almost everything in life, and incorporates math and the many fields of science.” Her path continues at Kettering University next year. Katerina’s parents are Ourania and Dimitri Bastounis.
