Meet Dakota Rae

Hi, My name is Dakota Rae. I am a 14-year-old freshman that attends Notre Dame Prep in Pontiac Michigan. In school, my favorite subjects are English and Literature. I like the freedom I have to write and be able to express myself through the writings I create.

Outside of school, I partake in two STEM/Engineering programs, 2023 Million Girls Moonshot Flight Crew and Girls in Engineering. These two programs have given me the opportunity to express my passion for creating and inventing. I’m also a volleyball player. My favorite positions are Outside Hitter and Defensive Specialist. As far as the future, I want to become a biomedical engineer because I like the science and technology behind the medical field.

My biggest inspiration to drive towards these goals is my mother. She strives to be the best and puts on the brightest smile even on the worst days. She has never failed me and I know that I can count on her for any and all things!
